Lived here 80% of my life.... and MD is by far, the worse state for drivers.
(Ex.) We havent had rain in 2 weeks. It rains today during morning rush hour. People begin to drive like there is a foot of snow on the road. My 20 min commute turns into an hour. Not enough rain to keep your wipers on even, just the intermitten mode.
I ran by a Mobil gas station to pick up some smokes on my way to work and saw "9" police cars in the lot. Inside, it looked like a police convention. SIpping coffee and eating donuts and bagels. I see one of the guys all the time so I asked if he was afraid of the rain. He replied "No, it's those psychos out there who think the streets are a parking lot. I am safer in here while they kill each other."
There you have it. *sigh*
