My wife and I typcially pick up a slug at the Pentagon in the afternoon to go to 234... we've noticed that sometimes, despite lots of cars and lots of people in line at some of the lines (especially Horner Road, and sometimes 234), that slugs just stand there and wait for EACH AND EVERY car to get its slug and move on before they even approach that car... wouldn't it be faster, when there is a surplus of people and cars, for folks to approach the cars in order to not cotninue to backlog the line (for both the slugs and the cars)??? Is there a slug "protocol" I am missing here?????

At least there's a driver out there that feels the same way I do...and I just slug. Come on people, don't stand there like a lump of coal. Be proactive and just maybe the line will move quicker and you will get home sooner.

I agree. Move and get home faster.

Thanks for the clarification.... the line needs to move!! Folks are too comfortable waiting for cars to come to them!

I agree, I thought one of the purpose was to be able to get home sooner than later. Do you need a ride or not.

It's just common sense. Blow up the mountain! ;p
