O, good grief! Article writers sometimes labor under the notion that Amtrak and bus customers actually don't like the mode of travel we choose and that we would rather be in a car. Wrong! When I choose Amtrak, it's because it's the most preferable way to travel. If you want to drive, that's fine. I drive too. If and when the Southeast High Speed Rail Corridor is up and running with a station-stop in South Hill, as is proposed (and North Carolina and Virginia have so far spent over a half-billion dollars in upgrades to existing rail corridors), I'll be using Amtrak a lot more than I do now. I'm not knocking a ride-share ap., in fact, I'd probably use it, but I think writers need to be more careful in crafting lines such as the opening line here.
