Worse. She was attempting to take a cab from Glenmont (DC suburbs) to Baltimore (about 60 miles away) during DC's infamous rush hour, when far too many commuters are heading to the Baltimore suburbs. The $70 is absolutely, positively NOT unscrupulous, and it is based directly on a visible meter. I've had to take cabs along that general route on several occasions. Many of the cabbies in that area live for airport trips.
Dulles was actually not too far from where she was staying during the week, and she would have had a pretty easy time of it. :-(
