Really? This woman needs to get a grip.

Passengers report seeing a flash when the friction ring hit the third rail, but there was no fire or smoke, Metro says.

One woman says she immediately thought about Sept. 11 when she heard a series of loud bangs while riding the train. She surfaced from Smithsonian Metro station in tears to greet her husband with a hug and kiss.

That's all he got? He should have gotten a full-fledged deep-throat bj.

I am sure she will file a multi-million dollar lawsuit within the next 90 days.

She thought of 9/11 because of some banging noise? LMAO


Hate to see what she does in a genuine emergency.

Blessed are the murderous.
