It's crazy isn't it? I spend a whole lot of time on that very stretch every week. Last Friday was particularly bad. I had friends call from that stretch of road headed south from Maryland. They couldn't believe it! Bumper to bumper going south at 11:00 AM.
I don't think it's the highway department, Virginia ranks fifth in the nation for the best roads. I will not comment on the drivers as this is a family friendly thread. ;*)
Number two.......in a few short days, we know what you're talking about with Virginia drivers. Absolute morons! And ALL left lane addicts!
We found ourselves going faster in the far right lane.
And why do they come to a dead stop when a car is parked alongside the road minding its own business. Sheesh!!
(But we loved seeing the Petersburg battlefield and our baby boy. :)
