Least Eventful D Line Trip
> Get on bus
> TRIP agents board bus, delaying it by three minutes
> Woman boards bus with kid
> Asked to provide fare
> Only kinda shows fare
> Is asked to properly show it so the agent can verify
> Immediately becomes argumentative and starts insulting the agent
> Eventually provides fare
> Still talks to herself for five minutes without anyone responding to her
> Second TRIP agent asks for a validator, no one responds
> TRIP agents proceed to argue with each other and then get off the bus
> Dude in front of me starts hacking up a lung
> Reach my stop
> Three Metro cops are surrounding one man, lights flashing
> Citing him for public urination (I see the puddle)
> Go home
I love this city and Metro Transit, but I swear I've never had a "normal" D Line Trip.
Also, why don't they give every TRIP agent a card validator?
