[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Psssst- when DCUM says “Maryland drivers”, they actually mean Black drivers. Ive witnessed this phenomenon multiple times in carpool. [/quote] As a VA POC, this is absurdly false. Because Virginia doesn't have Black drivers?! Maryland drivers are just bad. I mean legally, signaling isn't even required. It's a Maryland thing. A crazy, crazy Maryland thing. [/quote] Plenty of “POC” are racist. Thou doth protest too much. Just get out of the left lane, ‘kay? [/quote] Another VA POC, and I would agree that there is a difference in driving styles around the DMV but it isnt just VA/MD/DC. Maryland drivers on the Potomac side are a horrible mix of beltway runoff styles from Baltimore and a lack of basic defensive driving skills from Virginians. It is very sluggish this way until you get past 270, where people speed up again, and drive just as fast as the PG County side, only they (usually) use their signals. Going the other side -- Once you get towards Largo, where the black people are - there is rarely traffic (unless it is a Redskins game bringing Virginia traffic). Maryland drivers don't use signals, but that is because they don't trust that you are going to keep their pace when you get over. And if it is a Virginia driver - they are GUARUNTEED to get in front of you just to slow down to 1 mile above (if not below) the speed limit. DC drivers are pretty mindful because most all of them have nearly been killed when walking the streets by a Virginian or a Marylander. :lol:[/quote]
