Narrative:

Limos to and from rdu and the hotel are very dangerous. The limos have been doing up to 85 mph in the rain because they are told that they must make the trip in 20 mins. This is endangering our lives and simply is not acceptable. This is a common happening and must be addressed as soon as possible. We were told that flight at rdu has a strong influence in pressuring the hotel to keep to a 20 min schedule.
