General: I would fix the fare gates because the dude sitting in the same train car as me smoking weed(?) definitely didn’t tap in and I wish he wasn’t here. Can’t ban people if there’s no requirement to enter.

Tiny: Have all the trains stop at the exact same spot and add numbers to the floor in front of designated places for doors to open so you know which door is closest to the elevator, escalator/stairs, transfer, etc.

Pete’s Diner

212 2nd St SE

Easy parking on the street or access to Metro (Capitol South). Affordable prices. Great local spot. Food is tasty and filling. Can pretty much see the Capitol building from its door.

You are welcome.

Potomac Ave literally just had a shooting a month ago.

So yeah my dude count yourself lucky. Getting more wild to ride every day.

Cars are dangerous but that doesn’t take away from the absolute fact that Metro is getting worse in regard to safety. People are going to feel that, and decide to take an Uber / Lyft / etc instead when they can, or use their personal vehicles if they have one.

DC needs to up its police presence inside Metro stations and keep public transit safe to ride.
