235 raceway

Wow...

This morning was the first time I've driven south on 235 in the morning during rush hour in YEARS!!

Lots of cars but damn, traffic MOVES. I don't see what all the #####ing is about.

The pimp-mobile only hits 40-45 tops... of course it looks like traffic is moving...

65? That's it? Minimum is 75, my friend. As you get closer to the base, the speed is supposed to increase. If you can at least double the speed limit you'll earn a few points from time to time...

Depends on where you're from I guess. Traffic is almost non-existant here, but since people are used to 5 cars on the road, it's alot of traffic. Put them in a busy place for 1 week and they'll realize they need to quit the #####ing because they have it good. It's all about perception I guess.

Shoot, I was the SLOOOOOoooooowwwwwww driver!!

Felt like I was being pushed down the road. With as close as cars were packed on 235 I would NOT want to be out there on a bike first thing in the morning, that's for sure.

There was a time when I was perfectly happy driving in boston style traffic. I've been in southern maryland too long now though.
