Where are the slug lines from Woodbridge to Rosslyn?

Commuting from Lake Ridge to Old Town, VA or Rosslyn.

Kat, there is a line to Rosslyn at all three Woodbridge slug lines: Tackett's Mill, Horner Road, AND Potomac Mills. All three are very good, but Potomac Mills in particular is excellent.

Thank you! Is it difficult getting a ride from Rosslyn to Woodbridge? Also, how does this work? Do slugs usually offer gas money? Do drivers tend to pick up the same folks everyday? Are the cars marked, or does some yell out "I'm going to Rosslyn? One last question, where is the Rosslyn drop off point? Thanks again.

I rarely wait more than 5 minutes, and often there is NO wait as there are cars waiting. I cannot speak for the wait for drivers, for I usually ride.
Gas money should neither be offered nor asked for. There is NO exchange of funds or services.
You will start to recognize various drivers and riders because you'll have approximately the same schedules....
In the multi-purpose lines, like the Rosslyn/Crystal City lines, the car gets to the front, the driver tells the first slug in line "Rosslyn" and s/he gets in. If that's not where s/he's going, s/he'll call out the destination to the rest of the line.
The morning Rosslyn drop off point is the Metro.
