| Marylander here. Heard if I get a speeding ticket in VA I’ll get a negligent driving ticket?!? Possible jail? Someone please tell me this isn’t true! |

| I think it's 20 MPH over or 80+ MPH and then yes. |

| Virginia. Reckless driving charges are plentiful. |

| Maryland. They have rules, but the rules are just a formality and not enforced, so MD drivers are basically anarchy embodied. |

| Well Maryland doesn’t require turn signals. |

Good news! You can avoid this with one simple trick: don't speed. |

+1 Never got 80+ in Virginia unless you want to face a criminal charge. It’s not traffic court and the punishment can be jail time. Traffic laws are much worse in Virginia. |

No state requires turn signals. You can use hand signals. |

| In DC you can be arrested and taken to jail for 30 over...ask me how I know. |

In DC a) you can't turn left on red like in VA, and b) most downtown intersections prohibit it (signs) |

They’re talking about one way streets. |
