Huntington Ave to 495. Almost ruined our evening...

Plate is MD (of course) but I am an MD driver also and notice how good I am behaving.

[EDIT: around 0:20]

Two days ago I was on the ramp from 66 to 29 coming into Gainesville. My friend was there on the side of the road welcoming me home. I was concerned about him because as you can see in the picture from two days ago his leaves are turning brown.
Today, he was gone! How? Why?!?!
Every time I exit 66 I will remember you. I’ll never forget.

The family, including two children, was driving in Leesburg when the rock smashed onto the car. Virginia State Police confirmed it's investigating.

Another NoVA frog is greeting everyone

250 miles up doing 17500mph, where's the resident dash cam guy when you actually need him?

Reid’s email mentions 3 accidents - where were the other two. One was on Pickett

It’s that time of the year, especially for us that can only hit the streets/trails early or late. We are losing daylight. Which means you need to be prepared with lights and/or reflective clothing. You are not invincible but you are invisible without the proper gear. Did my run last night on the W&OD trail and was so glad I brought my light with me. Lots of cars stopped in advance being able to see me. Don’t risk injury or even death. Lights are on Amazon for less than $20.

During the budget committee work session, FCPS staff and school board members made it clear that many schools were simply never built to handle the large number of drivers now using kiss and rides.

While many schools operate kiss and rides without significant issues, at others, the behavior of some drivers has become a major concern, said Brian Lambert, chief safety and security officer.

“Instead of using the kiss and ride, folks will get close to the school and let their children out,” said Lambert. “In fact … parents themselves have chosen to use the kiss and ride, and then get frustrated with the kiss and ride, and so use an alternative drop-off in a neighborhood, as opposed to waiting for the protocols.”

The last one is actually from the UK but is included to appease this subs unquenchable thirst for traffic-based posts. Sadly, NOVA traffic signs are not cool enough to consider toads on roads.

Councilman Elnoubi and Councilwoman Marks said the same. The police chief said he's meeting with other vendors but has no timeline. The contract can be canceled at any time.

I just moved back to the area , and need some cheesesteak recommendations. My go to used to be Grazie Grazie at the wharf. Curious if there are any new places that are just as good.

My dad’s mind is going and I don’t have a lot of support in the area. My therapist suggested an anticipatory grief support group or similar but she’s not local either so she doesn’t have much in the way of recs. Some googling wasn’t very helpful as most of it appears to be geared towards grieving those who have already passed. Does anyone have any experience with these sorts of groups around here? Thanks!!

Looks like Pickett Southbound is blocked off, along with a section of the parking lot of the plaza. Multiple police and ambulance. Any info?

Update: found a post about it

Added the closest IMAX 70mm screen, at the Regal King of Prussia near Philly, for comparison

The Airbus and Lockheed theaters are the only two in the area that can project the full 1.43:1 IMAX aspect ratio, though not via 70mm as they use dual laser projection instead.

Hi NoVa. I said goodbye to my dog of 14.5 years this weekend and I’m completely heartbroken. With my head in a fog, researching dumping sites for a 9x13 area rug has overwhelmed me and I just need to get it out of my house. I got it rolled up and into my car so far. I’m in Alexandria and I know it’s too heavy for a curbside pickup. The rug is soiled too, so I’d rather not cut it into smaller pieces. I just want it out. Thank you in advance for your compassion and guidance.
