RedCoach Ocala Tallahassee recent customer reviews

I love red coach. But the driver was all over the lines. I was a nervous wreck. He would pick up the iPad to see what was going on. And all over the lines. He was either sleepy or tired. They have to many accidents on I-75. I just prayed we made it safe. I've never ever had any bad comments. But I didn't like that at all. I've never had a driver like this before.
