Review of Washington, District of Columbia


D.C. Area Sucks
Star Rating - 9/7/2006
I've lived here for 9 years and am itching to get the heck out. I grew up on the west coast and want to go back. The DC/MD/VA drivers are so bad...I believe they actually WANT to kill you. Watch out for them...they cut you off just by an inch, tailgate even if you're in the right lane or going 85mph, if you tick them off they will try to run you off the road. Forget about using crosswalks here nobody will let you cross or even speed up and run you over if they can. Even though there is diversity here, segregation still exists. DC/MD/VA is still the "south."
