A group of High Point High School students criticized the Metro bus system, describing one student’s daily Metro ride that takes him from his Beltsville home through College Park and back to the Beltsville school.
The morning commute takes close to an hour, said senior Levar Alonzo, when it should take minutes.
‘‘Our biggest issue is accessibility,” said Alonzo, adding that Prince George’s should, like Montgomery County, give free Metro rides to students.
The High Point students also pointed out inconsistent intervals between bus pick-ups, leaving students and other regular riders exposed to the extreme summer heat or winter cold for up to an hour.
Yeah, I definitely remember that. This proves in our car culture, if you do not live in a big metropolitan area such in DC or San Francisco, you have no choice but to sell your soul for a car note. America does not need any more roads. Besides have the Republicrats forgotten about Amtrak?
