[Nfbf-l] Para-transit

[Diana Alves de Oliveira]

In Miami it happens as well, and here we have a problem with the language barrier in many cases. Drivers that do not speak English and clients that don’t speak Spanish.
Routes that don’t make any sense, picking up and dropping off people that are NOT on the route and are suddenly placed there by dispatchers, drivers who cannot find addresses and just leave clients stranded... well, goes on and on.
And you got a point: we should get a report of the rides we took and the amount paid.
