[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fine, then they should do away with all left exits then, as well as left turns for that matter. I'll go 10-12 mph over the limit for a few minutes if I absolutely have to so I don't get rear-ended but apparently I don't have the right to be there at all if someone is doing 75 in a 55 behind me, usually 2 feet from my bumper. Even if I'm turning left in a tenth of a mile. Yet somehow I'm the inconsiderate, entitled one with an American attitude problem? Okay.[/quote]

How many left turns are you making on the highway?  :shock:

Left exit to get to 267 from 495, left exit to get to Braddock Rd from the 495 HOV, any left turn on the Fairfax County Parkway... you've never seen left exits from highways or left turns on 55 mph roads before? ??[/quote]

A left exit isn’t a “left turn”. You struggle to drive 65 mph on the highway? Where did you learn to drive? How old are you?

[b]Who said anything about struggling? [/b]VA doesn't mess around with speeding tickets and I'm not willing to get that ticket on your behalf.[/quote]

Because 15 mph over the limit = bad. Not that my car can't go that fast. If the limit were higher, I'd go faster. Blame it on those pesky speed limits.

You said you don’t even want to go 10-12 mph over the limit. “For a few minutes if I absolutely have to”

So how fast do you drive in a 55 zone? 60 mph? And you don’t even speed up when you use the left lane to pass someone? Yikes. You’re an accident waiting to happen.
