You realize by driving this way, you're breaking the law and no better than the speeder, right?

I agree with seat belts.

But people are not perfect and you need to start doing meditation if all these things bother you.

Namaste!

We all need fucking meditation when we deal with each other as DC drivers.

I don't drive much these days but I remember feeling quite homicidal during my commutes years ago. I kid kid, of course. Maybe.

I hate hate hate when people cut over into a lane last minute... the lane is moving slowly because people are doing this so more people do it. See: exit 8 on 270 every freaking evening...

I was recently driving after someone on the GW parkway who was in the left lane at 50 mph and made sure to stay exactly parallel to the car in the right lane - to make sure that I can't pass him. He was absolutely intentional about it and clearly enjoyed a long line of cars driving behind him at his speed for several miles.

I'll add, Maryland drivers wait your turn. Don't try to stuff your car in front of mine because you're to impatient or important to wait your turn in line.

And yes, almost every car i see do this everyday to/from work is a car with Maryland tags.

I've never witnessed this but wow. You have to be a special kind of person to do something crazy.

You've never seen this? I see it about once every long trip I take (and we have a weekend house so that's fairly often.)

I was on the Dulles Toll Road last week and saw a truly awful driver in one of those driving school cars: drifting back and forth all over the road, driving 20 miles under the speed limit, randomly braking, etc. I thought okay, they're a student, it's all good. Then I passed them and saw ONE woman in the car-obviously wasn't someone in a driving school lesson. Scary!

NP but I've witnessed this A LOT in this area. Horrific drivers.

We had an Uber driver do this on 66 in spite of us yelling at him to just keep going.

Super duper pet peeve....

If you miss your turn. do not stop, if you miss your exit. do not cut across 18 lanes of traffic. if you are int he left turn turn and want to go straight. just don't.

folks. if you miss your turn, miss yoru exit or are in the wrong lane. SUCK IT UP BUTTERCUP. take your lumps and get off at the next exit, and double back. take your turn and figure out how to get back on the road. DO NOT F%CK up my life and cause me to have an accident as a result of your inability to drive.
