| In April most law firms in DC will be open, as well as some government agencies. With that said, I think we all should start slugging again. I am a slug and have been picked up at the Rolling Valley Park n Ride and see many military personnel catching rides to the Pentagon. |

I'm definitely interested in this, since I live near Rolling Valley and used to slug to work every day. I'd prefer to go to 18th in DC but would be happy with a Pentagon drop-off. Thanks!

Are cars stopping to pick people up? I'd need a ride around 6:50ish How do you get home? The few times I've tried to pick up slugs at the Pentagon, there was no one there.

| I haven't slugged in 2 years, so I don't know if anyone is lining up at RV. I normally commute to downtown DC, not the Pentagon, so I'm not sure the situation there. From what I've read on here, few, if any, people are lining up at the Pentagon in the afternoon. |

| The bus picks up at 8:13 and 8:28 I believe. I have caught rides from Rolling Valley just before the bus comes around 8am. I also see people taking the military to the Pentagon. I have not seen slugging at the Pentagon yet. So I take the 18P back to my car. |

| I have to be at work in DC at 8 am sharp, so those times wouldn't work for me. I rarely take the 18P bus because it takes forever and I *still* have to Metro from Pentagon to my office, and with most lines operating only every 20 minutes, it's a non-starter. For me, slugging is as much about getting to work faster as it is about saving money. I'd be willing to slug from RV to Pentagon, but taking the bus takes WAY too long because it stops too much. |

| I stood in the slug line this morning by myself at 8am. A gentleman turned in, pulled up and said 18th Street which was exactly where i needed to go. My lucky day! He said he would pick up riders if he saw people in line. I am going to stand in the slug line every day and hope for the best. Worst case, it's the old 18P but i have to try. Thanks. |

| I went to the pentagon today and again i was the only one in the burke line. fortunately, someone from woodbridge was in a hurry to get home and picked me up. it saved them money in the hot lanes and time in traffic. |

| Does anyone know why slugs from Prince Williams are slugging at the Pentagon and no one from Burke/Springfield is???? I see slugs being picked up at the other lines but not ours. Thanks |
