WEILE MATTHEW

Poor vehicle and passenger planning. Overall trip was ok but a van was used for this trip. Backseat was more narrow than remaining seats but was filled up to full capacity coupled with winter wear clothing which made seating uncomfortable. Should consider bigger vehicle or not fill up vehicle to full capacity during winter period due to additional space taken up by winter wear.
