DC and MD drivers always tend to be more cautious. Probably because they know to be wary when the see VA plates.


Nonsense. Maryland drivers are the worst drivers in the region, hands down. Or in the case of MD drivers hands and eyes on their phone.


I don’t think DC drivers are any better. I live among them. All equally assoles.

I live NW and that doesn’t bother me but people who don’t stop at all or barely stop do. Just today, after I picked up my son from school a woman blew through the stop sign. Our kids are walking across those intersections.

I drive fast towards 4-way stops and brake hard, trying to get there first before anyone else. The other drivers always wave me through.

First car to arrive at intersection goes first. If any two perpendicular cars arrive simultaneously, the car on-the-right goes first. More than two cars? They go in the order of their arrival to the intersection.

It’s not that hard, so long as all cars at the 4-way stop utilize their turn signals. I’ve found lack of turn signal usage to be the biggest contributor of confusion in this area. We are not mind readers!

OP here. I guess I just have that look.


Do you have a tendency to approach intersections fast or roll through stop signs?

Every place complains it has bad drivers.

Conclusion: bad drivers are everywhere and most people are bad drivers.

Waiving someone else through is not correct, or polite, and it causes confusion.


Annoying but not that dangerous.

How about, don’t pass me on my right blowing through a stop sign that I’m stopping at.


Or, don't pass me on a crowded 2-way street when I'm slightly pulled to the right to allow an oncoming car to come through. Effin moron.
