Georgetown Pike needs to be dualized

If that is what you want, take 267 or 7. Leave the conutry road as is.

Drove it this morning, it wasn't bad. The worst are the drivers who insist on going the speed limit when they could go faster. Also, the letting people in at Swinks Mill should be curtailed. It backs up too many on G'Town Pike. And don't get me started on the light at River Bend.

WTF. Speed limits are not discretionary.

You must be new to the area.

Hopefully the cops will stop you - and jail you - before you hurt someone else. For your education, ye who claims to be a long-time resident: https://jalopnik.com/never-speed-in-virginia-lessons-from-my-three-days-in-1613604053

Are you a child? NP

Are you someone who enjoys going to jail simply because they couldn’t control their impatience? Speed recklessly in the wrong part of VA and you will go to a jail. Spouting inane insults won’t change that for you.

I think PP is asking if you are a child because it seems that you have never driven in VA before. Everyone knows the reckless driving rules in VA. The fact that you feel the need to link to a dumb article from a website called Kotaku that focuses on video games gives away your demographic. So to ask PPs question, are you in fact a child?

The depths of your stupidity are only surpassed by your sheer laziness. The website was not “Kotaku”, but Jalopnik. It doesn’t focus on video games, but rather cars and is one of the most popular car websites in the world. The author of the article was on a test drive . . . Ah, screw it, why the hell am I even bothering to engage with a run-of-the-mill internet moron who has no interest in civil discourse and no capacity for logical thought? That’s a rhetorical question, although I doubt you grasp the concept.

Interesting that you for some reason thought the link was to Kotaku. You wouldn’t be projecting your childishness, would you?

I’m sorry for confusing your car website for kids for a video game website for kids.

Just tell me this, when you posted the link did you think you were conveying vital information to people who have lived in the DMV for decades?

You still have responded whether you are a child, which is telling.

Here’s a tip, if you’re an adult and you want to let other adults know the law you can post a link to the code of VA and spare us the story about some millennial’s travel exploits. LOL.

My goodness. You showed your face again. Not just a cranky idiot, but a shameless one also.

Look up the difference between de jure and de facto laws and think long and hard - difficult for you, I get it - about how it may be applicable in this instance.

You're an absolute idiot, and probably the reason I hear sirens so often.

Agreed!

Can you name a single instance where adding more lanes alleviated traffic?

Every instance?

Sorry, no. It's designated a Historic Byway. Go a different way if you don't like it.

Then go a different way. The road rage idiots are those who feel it needs to be enlarged so they can go as fast as they want. What it needs is a bigger police presence to ticket those jacka$$es.

Question: how can you go faster than the speed limit without, you know, breaking the law?

I don’t live near Georgetown Pike but my kids seem to have a few friends who do. I drive the speed limit because I don’t know the area well and have to look at the signs so I know when to turn. The locals who ride my tail stress me out.Sorry for driving safely in your neighborhood!

DP. It's not the "locals" who are riding your tail. It's the idiots who think they can blaze on through there at whatever speed they like, because they're just using it as a shortcut. The locals are the ones who respect the speed limit.

Exactly. Case in point for the problems on Gtown Pike.

That said, drivers should obey the traffic laws and back the F off when someone else is doing so. The ragey drivers are the problem. Slow down and chill out. Or leave earlier. Or take another route.
