The scene: Potomac Yards, location of the Target and Best Buy closest to Washington D.C., and hence very crowded. The worst drivers in the area convene in that parking lot, resulting in chaos and traffic jams. Yes, I mean traffic jams inside a strip mall.
Completely unrelated background: this area was once a superfund site. Ha!
Last Friday after an ajmatt “date night” at Best Buy (look at all the shiny toys…), we were fighting our way out of the parking lot (as usual) when someone stopped to let us in. Someone who had the right-of-way.
I said, “That was strange,” and Matt and I simultaneously looked at the nice driver’s license plate.
Where could they be from? Washington state, naturally. Home of the nicest drivers in the world.
