  • Oh, Lex. They have quite a reputation around Champaign. I have a few memorable experiences with them: 1.) My mom and I used to plan shopping days in Chicago, and we used to use Lex. Like others have said, it usually involved a random stop at a hotel parking lot in the middle of nowhere and we would switch shuttles and/or drivers. Shady, awkward, inconvenient. 2.) My then-boyfriend had an early flight in Indianapolis, and I booked him a ticket on a Lex shuttle because there were no other options for a 2 am departure. He was the only passenger, and the driver was a pregnant woman. As soon as they got on the highway, he noticed her head bobbing. He asked her if she was okay, and she told him that she was really tired and ASKED IF HE COULD DRIVE WHILE SHE SLEPT IN THE BACK. WHAT. IS. THIS. My boyfriend obliged (...) and drove the shuttle all the way to the airport. Hahahaha! When he pulled the shuttle in to the airport, the lady thanked him and was on her way. 3.) Yes, I have taken Lex even after that. I missed my Amtrak train at Union Station and needed to get to Champaign that day, so I called Lex. Lucky for me, they already had a shuttle on the way. There were a few other people, probably students, riding with me. I was sitting directly behind the driver and could see his hands and face in the mirror. During the whole trip, he had his cell phone in his lap or on the steering wheel and was texting. I mean, come on. I don't even want to know what sort of subject matter caused a 50-something guy to be glued to his phone like that. Just kidding, I totally tried to read the texts but couldn't. I do know that he was an awful texter and driver. He kept veering out of his lane just a little whenever he was looking down. Lex really needs to get their stuff in order and screen their drivers. And yes, their hub is also a jacuzzi showroom or something. It's strange. The only good thing I can say about Lex is that I can usually bribe the driver to take me directly to my house instead of the hub. I've never taken the buses, only minivan-type shuttles, so maybe those are better. I only take Amtrak now-- I'd rather deal with long waits than crazy drivers.
