I can't stand people from Maryland

Smart people have common sense. Truly smart people. There are not a lot of them around here. Have no fear.

Try driving in Virginia, because Virginia Is For Lovers!!

As I detailed in my screed earlier, Virginia is for Lovers of driving 2 miles an hour above the speed limit in the left lane next to other cars for miles and miles on end.

And also, for Lovers of having to have an arrow to make a left turn even though there's no oncoming traffic visible.

There have been so many times when I have been behind a Virginia driver waiting to make a left in Maryland or DC, and I have to use the friendly, "do you need an engraved invitation" honk because they don't realize that they can make a left turn without an arrow specifically telling them to do so.

And to the ladies who drive big cars because they think they are intimidating others...your car does not scare me. It's the fact that a suburban soccer Mom who is on the cell phone while driving, is operating the vehicle. Because honestly, most of them cannot drive at all!

It's less that the car is big and more that it is OLD that makes people get out of the way...and it does work. I drove a nice little luxury SUV for years and people would speed up when I put on my blinker to get over, now that I drive an old clunky one people don't try this crap with me--my car does not look like a soccer mom car--it looks more like something someone who lives in the woods and only comes out once a year for supplies would drive.

You must be so proud. Have you accessorized with shotgun racks and a hound dawg?

No, but, that's a good idea!

And I am proud of a lot of things--I'm awesome! I love me, I don't care in the least that you don't like me because I drive an old car.

Hey- when I drive (which is fortunately infrequently) I drive a 1998 Honda Civic, so no stones cast for that reason. I just wonder how it is that you're perceiving virtue in the appearance of backwoodsiness.

It's not virtue, it's just that when I go to get over, people don't try to speed up and run me off the road and people don't cut me off anymore either. The only change I have made is switching cars from something that looks like I wouldn't want it to get hit to something that looks like I could care less if it gets hit (it's also big, so I'm sure that helps too). So, like it or not, I feel safer now.

Are you perceiving vitrue in the fact that you "infrequently" drive, or are you just confessing that you don't have enough experience to weigh in on a discussion about driving?

Yes.
