DC People hate Metro Delays and Problems

Read up on it here on DC FAB

DC FAB ENOUGH IS ENOUGH METRO

First the tragic collision that has left nine DMVers dead and over 70 injured on the Red line, followed by a rush-hour jumper who was struck and killed on the Red line…immediately followed by a man in a wheelchair who “rolled off of the track” earlier today. I’m sorry WMATA, but enough is enough.

Many people are looking for someone to blame: the city, an agency, the government?

Point your fingers if you must but I’m sick of the accidents, especially the preventable ones (I’m sure someone knew those trains were old), I’m sick of the delays (How reliable is your train tracking system, honestly! Isn’t the system 33 years old?! Older than me! You’ve got to be kidding.) and I’m especially sick of the elevator outages that have been out for over a year…y’all know y’all ain’t right.

For a system that millions of DMVers use every day to go in and out of D.C. and the surrounding areas, I think we deserve better…more!

I ride the MARC train (don’t even get me started on that mess) and the metro daily and I’m looking for y’all to step up. If they can’t step up by themselves, Mayor Fenty, let’s earmark some funds to the renovation of our public transit system. Don’t be afraid to call on Governor O’Malley and Governor Kaine. I’m sure y’all are sick of it too, having to answer to constituents who have to deal with a failed public transit system.

If I hear about one more Metro accident I think I’ll want to throw myself in front of a train (<— total and complete joke for emphasis).
