I was happy that there were seat belts. And ride was fine. However I was not happy that when I got there on time the driver was not he was inside Tim s probably getting coffee or whatever and I had to stand out in the cold with luggage till he appeared. It was at least 5 minutes. This has never happened before. I think your passengers are your priority and your own needs second as the chauffeur.
