That's a classic and definitely the truth as any of us know that have been forced to drive there. One of the few places in the world that is a parking lot half the day and a race track the other half. A few years ago I took my GF up somewhere off 50 west of the beltway to pick up her G35 coupe from a body shop (we lived in Fredericksburg but she hit a deer on the way back from Pittsburgh one night and had to tow it to a shop in BFE). We raced from there all the way around the lower half of the beltway, across the WW bridge, and finally down onto 301 back to home. That was 5 years ago, and if a cop had pulled me over, I'm pretty sure I would just now be getting my license back.
