After a 6 hour journey, my Uber driver takes the back roads from DCA to Reston and refuses to take the toll road even though I said I’ll pay for it. No breakfast and staring at a long day. FML!

They get reimbursed anyway if they send their tolls in to UBER... Next time just cancel the ride and get another driver.

Not even George Washington. I wish he at least did that. Like a route I have never seen before.

As long as you have 2 people in the car - no toll... sound like a crappy Uber driver

By “backroads” you mean the George Washington Memorial Parkway....?

Might have been traffic on 495. Never can really tell

He was trying to avoid the Dulles Toll road - which isn't free regardless of how many riders are in the car. he probably took you out Route 7 or somewhere fun.

Ridiculous that he wont take the toll road if you're paying.

Yeah sounds miserable

Why don’t you fly in to Dulles instead?

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)
