I have pretty much given up riding the Metro on weekends, and instead take the bus or just don't go downtown at all.

Since the red line accident, I suppose I've taken the Metro several times on the weekend. Just enough to remind me not to do it the next time. It's not just the wait between trains, though that can be interminable -- it's how long the ride can be, because of frequent and long stoppages. Buses just aren't fast enough if you have to travel any distance.

I have stopped using Metro on weekends. I drive instead. That sounds snide, and it is -- but, it's also a huge behavioral change for me.
