Potomac Bad Rider Experience - Your Thoughts

   "I am a new rider......  I never had an incident until this distasteful experience"

	Last note - I am curious how a "new rider" can state that they "never had an incident until this distasteful experience."  What does that mean?  You rode for a week and never had an incident?  Or a day? Not a very good success rate in that case.  Just my curiosity getting the better of me! I just don't like seeing allegations that don't make sense and if you're going to make them, please be prepared to explain.

	Perhaps we shud set up kangaroo court review pannels to police these issues. I think that would be fun and provide meaningful due process for these situations and the issue where someone was caught cutting in line. We could do this like an honor court and even appoint counsel for each side and set up a separate appeal board with a briefing schedule. This would be in a "self appointed" capacity. This process would be totally faire and quote useful.

	Yes, I do work in the legal system, but I hope you can tell i am being sarcastic here. Such a system with the very few probems we have would be a terrible idea and would have no basis in law. The only recourse we have (unless something is illegal and we call the police) is to post on this message board and hem and haw about it.

	Just to get this thread back on track, I am waiting to hear what the "orders" were that the driver gave to the slugger? Sluggee? Passenger.[:)]

	Better late, than never: I was the other passenger in the car. There were no orders given, the driver was very respectful when asking you NOT to put your make-up on. You took defense and continued with a negative attitude during the ride leading to confrontation. She took your attitude better than I. If I were the driver, I would of accepted the HOV ticket violation and made appropriate provisions for you to get out of my car. You were just very "RUDE"[:(!] and it had nothing to do with culture, ethnic, accent, etc. People participating in the Slug System expect to encounter a diversity of people.
