| This is more focused on people in Bethesda but. River Road during the school week is terrible. Is it only me noticing that. I have to take the backroads almost every day to get to work! Does anyone know why. |

The problem is basically that the bulk of downcounty MoCo is filled with a bunch of NIMBYs so they can't appropriately plan. |

On River Road, Sarah Langenkamp was killed by the driver of a truck two years ago:

That occurred on the busy stretch of River Road by Whole Foods. I don't think OP is referring to that part of the road. |

| The goal of those in charge is to make driving so miserable that a) you take the bus or b) you leave. Unfortunately, the bus system is awful |

| I think that Holton Arms School has some kind of “in” to get the light at their intersection with River Rd timed in a way to benefit the families driving in and out of the school grounds and makes is a delayed mess for the rest of us. |

| River Road is a lot better than Wisconsin, Connecticut, or Georgia. Living off of River Road is pretty great from a logistics pov. Inside or outside of the beltway. |
