I'm not sure if it's specific to Baltimore, but when I lived in the area there was a specific hand signal people on the street would do for "I'm willing to pay a few bucks for a ride".

DC has a similar thing called "slug lines" at certain intersections for people to share rides out of the city.

Then why was it even available as an ingredient? I mean, I know why, just so that they could manufacture some stupid cooking show drama.

Dry ice has been used in cocktails for decades. The number of injuries and deaths from it are minuscule, far less than random allergic reactions to other ingredients. The activated charcoal is a lot more of an issue in my opinion since there is danger of interfering with medications.
