Rush Wickes <law@vatech.edu> said something like: : On the approach road that connects Reagan National Airport to US 1 and : Crystal City (with an overpass of the GW Parkway), there is a left : turn light (facing traffic headed towards the airport) with the sign : below that reads 'empty taxis, no left turn'. Can anyone explain why : this sign is in place? I believe that it's to prevent taxis from bypassing the Airport controlled queueing areas. If a taxi is dropping of a fare, no problem. But there would be no reason for an empty taxi to re-approach the terminal, except to try and bypass the (sometimes long) waiting line. : -- : Rush Wickes | spam deterrent in place : to reply: replace 'vatech' with 'vt'. : web : http://www.southside.org/~rush/ -- > B E N T L E Y < bentley AT digex DOT net A long frisbee throw from the pungent and lovely Potomac River www.access.digex.net/~bentley/remove-this-bot-blocking-part
