Well, I am saying that at least here in Rochester, I am finding that more
individual drivers are choosing to use their own personal GPS units. I don't
know, since I haven't use the paratransit and a while but they also had a few
drivers that were using your own personal GPS units. However, from what I've
heard they're starting to crack down on a lot of things there and want things
done their way in terms of the paratransit system which really sucks for
everybody this includes drivers and passengers alike.
