Jiffy Lube Live

problem with md drivers in the beltway area is they are so agressive and dont follow the laws thus endangering everyone around them

in this respect- and i have lived in this area for 18 years- they are diferent from dc/va drivers


nationally the worst i have seen are south florida drivers...they make md drivers look like boy scouts

[Thousand Made-Up Loves]

i far prefer the republic of arlington to md

The People's Republic of Arlington is almost the only redeeming quality about VA. Unfortunately its full of DOUCHEBAGS.

this is all so silly.

maryland shmaryland.  virginia shmirginia.

The experience of living in either of these places is pretty much the same (at least within dc metro region).  seperated merely by a river in some places, by just miles in others.

If Springfield is lily-white, what does that make Bethesda?

I always get amused when people say "-such and such location- are the worst drivers ever."

everyone says that about everywhere. well, where are the good drivers then?

I drive through downtown daily and can attest that those with DC license plates drive much better than their suburban counterparts (taxis and trucks excepted)

driving is socialized so there are better and worse areas

Of course. They know the area better. DC is a very confusing place to get around in, especially while driving. The locals are use to it and know the area and traffic patterns much better. Of course they will tend to be better drivers while in their own neighborhoods. Take them out of their usual environments and they'll probably seem like yahoos compared to that other area's drivers.

Uh, oh.

a few facts before we proceed with any discussion about the racial makeup of states/districts:

DC census stats: http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/11000.html
MD census stats: http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/51000.html
VA census stats: http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/24000.html

ok, back to arguing about who has the worse drivers... or, you know, how much jiffy lube live SUCKS.

Agree and disagree.  I live in the MD burbs and have great access to both DC and Baltimore.  There is no equivalent in NOVA.
