Add affordable, reliable transportation to list of Baltimore necessities

For most adults living in Maryland, how to get from one place to another — from home to work, for example, or to the grocery store or a doctor’s appointment — isn’t a major concern. Oh, we’ll gripe about gasoline prices (currently hovering around $3.07 per gallon of unleaded regular, roughly 26 cents from one year ago, according to AAA). But the chances are good that we have access to one of the 5 million vehicles registered in the state.
