They got me where I needed to go, traffic slowed it down, that's whatever. But the outlets weren't working, and my phone needed to charge, that sucked. Then the driver kept making announcements telling me and the person beside me to stop talking to each other, even though we were being reasonable in our volume. Don't know what his problem was.

The worst experience ever, we got stuck on the highway because the bus kept overheating. Was late to NYC by 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Philly bus "station" is just a street pullover in a bleak part of the city. No facilities whatsoever and bad accessibility by public transit. Absolutely unnacceptable. And for some reason, the trip was slowed even further because the driver wouldn't utilize HOV or dedicated bus lanes, so we spent more time in regular traffic than we should have.
