The Washington D.C. area ranked third in the nation for worst traffic. I would like to thank the incompetents at the WMATA for making Metro one of the worst mass transit systems in the nation. If it weren't for their constant bungling and attempts to drive customers away, this award would not have been possible. Without their lack of hard work and dedication D.C. might not have reached the upper eschelon's of traffic hell.
Had they not had the foresight to remove seats, put on shorter trains, cut service during major sporting events, and arrest people for candy bars, while at the same time hiking fares, who knows where D.C. might have ranked.

Let's not forget their making it impossible to run express trains because of how they laid tracks or choosing a train design that has trouble handling the snow.
Posted by: Bob at May 12, 2005 8:39 AMThat's because WMATA is managed and overseen by a hostile, corrupt, incompetant third-world nation.
DC should never have been given home rule. It's obvious by now that the city cannot run itself, period.
