My drive to work was smooth sailing this morning and I'm up in Landover. I dont think it was underestimated...they told people where to stay away from....and i think those people listened or just decided to take today off.
I'm around the corner from new carrolton and all morning people are getting their cars towed left and right from parking on the route 50 ramps to get to that metro and on the grass.
they said 200k people took metro at 7am this morning.....underestimated NOT.
