I have spoken with MadDimension and have run the fundamentals by him.
It will take some coordination and pre-planning but that will allow us to run smoothly and everyone get in and quickly without excessive exposure.
Are either or you carpool coordinators or could you point those individuals toward in the future?
@AltCelt(IL) That would be a very useful thing if you indeed can manage it. Please keep me informed.
@everyone I'm going to be organizing the Shuttles System to maximize efficiency and reduce the amount of people exposed to absolute minimum. It's not a hard task to understand but it will take cooperation and organization.
First – I need to know who is renting 12, 15 and even 8 seater vans and how many.
Please reply back here.
@Tyrone Confirm with @Chef Goyardee but I believe he is renting a 15 passenger van.
@Tyrone @Athena Marie is renting a 15-seater ( think it's 15)
maybe it's 12
@Phillip Wiglesworth - FL @Tyrone we both have 15 PAX vans
I'll be happy to assist
👌 👍
Yeah I'm renting a 15 passenger van but all things considered it's gonna seat 10 to 12 after luggage and even then it's gonna be a tight fit
Talking about for shuttle to site up there @Pharaoh Bearclaw III - FL
Luggage and whatnot should be in rooms at that point
Ahhhh okay then yeah we can cram more at that point
More like a shuttle transporting groups of ppl from a parking area to event so cars won't be there @Pharaoh Bearclaw III - FL
@everyone Since the there appears to be confusion, I need:
One (1) person from any group bringing an 8-15 passenger van to be designated the POC and let me know how many vans and how many seats in their van. (Make sure when renting you get the walk away insurance, Antifa does something you call the company and tell them it's their problem and you need another van.)
I will be arranging for satellite meet up and parking sites. Further information on that will be coming shortly. This will take organization coordination. This will keep the exposure of small groups of people to a minimum.
If you don't want to play and just show up with your car at the rally because that sounds fine to you, YOYO man.
Further details will be forthcoming. Keep all other chatter elsewhere.
My only concern with using my Florida van is if there is damage and I won't be able to get the Florida guys back I'm time for work on Monday because of insurance crap. Let's say the front windshield is smashed and there aren't any replacement vans available from the rental service.
Unless your company isn't in Virginia, they are on the hook for getting a replacement to you.
They might have to bring it to you from D.C. or Richmond, etc or work an arrangement from another company, but that's what the insurance covers.
The other option is we all act like selfish libertarians and hope it's someone else's personal vehicle that gets hit or someone else's rental.
Regardless, the entire purpose is to keep all the total amount of vehicles at risk to a minimum, but primarily reduce the risk to ALL of our people.
Agreed. Just want to make sure there is a backup plan for a worse case scenario here.
I'll talk to enterprise to double check that they will provide transportation in case of an (((accident))).
In the event something happens cops will be involved and adjustments will have to be made to remove people from the scene. This will be a game time decision.
This will be us
I know NC law is on the books that driving over protestors blocking roadways isn't an offense. This is crossover for this channel and VA law.
@MadDimension I am renting a 15-passenger van and bringing a group from the S.C./central-NC area. We will be arriving on Aug. 11 and leaving Aug 13. I'd like to volunteer our van for whatever it can be used for while we're up there. Most of us are staying at the NC Haus.
Friendly reminder to consider using Uber/Lyft services to be dropped off at safe locations close to Lee Park. Using one of these services would eliminate the danger of your car being targeted/damaged after you drove and parked it in the area (likely with some Trump/NRA/other sticker on it).
Thats bad advice and also doesn't belong in this channel
Probably better than your idea of renting a school bus from the local school district, imo.
If you have reasoning as to why you think using Uber/Lyft is a bad idea, however, I'm more than willing to listen.
Also, this absolutely belongs in this channel, as it directly relates the topic of shuttle service to the event. Individuals have expressed concerns over having their owned/rented vehicles damaged, and this is an issue that needs to be addressed.
Yes, drive to a cliff and use a glider to get to the park.
Beat that.
