Between hitting the side of the tunnel and what he was doing when you typed this, did you notice if he was dozing at the wheel?

New Jersey is getting beer named after exits on the NJTPK.

Is it called "jrzyshawn-is-never-getting-to-DC-because-traffic-sucks Lager"???? Better yet, are you going to have to pay a toll for every sip you take??? :D

When I took BoltBus from Boston to NYC last month, the driver mentioned he's turning back to Boston basically immediately. You know they don't have a real terminal in NYC.

So, your driver probably started from DC earlier in the day. With traffic, he's probably been behind the wheels for close to the federal limit of 11hours. It is scary.

Shipping confirmation came on first coin order...will do another one on both of my point-earning cards as soon as the shipped coins arrive.

I've been taking advantage of the coin 'circulating' for a few months now. Took a break as I'm traveling too much to be home for the delivery. Luckily my banks are ok w/the deposits -- I try not to take too much as one time. I also use them to pay my tolls on the GSP -- don't have EZPass as I don't use it enough to justify the mthly fee.:-:

It sounds like we need those black boxes they have in the UK that act as automatic drivers logs.

Yet it always pained me to call SuperShuttle.

I have a visceral and unreasonable dislike of supershuttle.

You can live in any state and get the one from Delaware. There is no monthly fee. ^ I even kept my EZ pass when I moved here to Texas - for those times when we go up to visit my in-laws and I have to rent a car. The EZ pass was stolen out of my car a couple months ago.:mad: The key w/ DE is that you need to have your statements come in by e-mail/pdf file. Otherwise, they charge you a monthly fee.

Go to http://www.ezpassde.com and you can apply online. Since I applied years ago, they just sent it out for free. Now they charge $25 to issue a transponder. Otherwise, it is smooth sailing.
