The SMART People Series, is a series of short interviews with some of our riders, both past and present, who have a story to tell! Some of our riders used SMART to traverse back and forth to school where they earned their degree.  One of our riders is an artist who has chosen SMART as his mode of transportation because of some newly diagnosed health issues that limit his driving.  Learn more about our extraordinary riders now by subscribing to our YouTube page and checkiong out the riders we've highlighted so far!
