You do not win sympathy for your cause by slowing down traffic.
I stopped commuting a few years ago when my contracting went downhill but my wife commutes in a van pool from here in Stafford up to Ft Mead, MD. 94 miles one way. I hope the BW Parkway doesn't have too many problems that day or else I may not see her until the next day.
Bless her heart.
If there’s an early forecast of snow, you might not see her until the next week.
