kiss and ride
Quick passenger exchange
Kiss and ride describes a transportation arrangement where one person drops off another at a transit station—typically with a quick goodbye kiss—rather than parking.
The term labels designated areas at train stations or bus terminals for brief passenger drop-offs: The kiss and ride lot was full of cars idling near the platform.
Also used as a verb: I kiss and ride to work every day.
