Sucks.


six hours to get from Fredricksburg to just North of Baltimore.


You people need to learn how to drive. *The whole idea is not to hit
other cars thus blocking five lanes of interstate and locking them up
in gridlock.


Morons. *:)


Oh, and Virginia drivers suck.


Woulnd't be a trip report without mentioning that drivers in Virginia
suck. *:)


I often took the longer, but much more scenic Rt 84/Rt81 *route when going
to Florida for exactly that reason. *I'd cut back over to 95 just north of
Tennessee.


Normally, that's how we go, but Mrs. Wave had to stop along the way
for an hour so we went 95.


However, that being all well and good, that corridor is a national
disgrace and if I were a citizen of Maryland or Virginia and had to
travel that route, I'd be screaming bloody murder about the incredible
incompetence of the designer and builder of that road.


They've been working on that for at least 15 years and still don't
have it right.


Some contractors welfare plan apparently.


Add in the moron drivers they have in Virginia and it's a recipe for
diaster.


I'll tell you though .... some parts of your state (CT) *is almost as bad.
I am thinking of the southern part of 95 ... Bridgeport, Stratford area.
Basically everything from New Haven south. * Seems like that section is
under constant repair or re-configuration.

Well, when my bud comes up he skips all of that and comes in via 84
from 81, even to get to our home in Essex on the shore. Still only
takes him 1-3 hours longer than coming up through DC, NYC, and the
lower Shoreline. I forget how many miles longer the trip is, but
coming in that way, the last few hours especially are nice and
relaxed..
