Rantworthy #3 [My First $16 Cab Ride]

Dear Mayor Fenty,

Thank you so much for putting meters in all of the DC cabs- as if we didn’t pay enough in taxes.  Lord knows the city workers need more money to embezzle. After all, they do have luxury cars to buy.

I figured I’d let you know that I just took a cab from one side of the city to the other today and got stuck behind a wreck at Dupont circle. As a result my normal $9 cab turned into $16. The meter ran as we watched DC’s finest take up two lanes trying to figure out who was at blame.

Pretty awesome, huh?

Truly,

SGT
