Very reckless drivers. Speeding through parking lots and not stopping for pedestrians! That's an accident waiting to happen. Unit 121 saw me crossing the parking lot and didn't make an effort to even slow down. And they wonder why people prefer Uber and Lyft.

The man was kind & let me know when he'd be there which I appreciated. However he did over charge for traveling 1 1/2 miles.
