53.4 MPG Commute

Best AM commute ever in downtown DC. No carpooler today, so forced into the slower lanes (55-60 MPH) Hit 55 MPG right before entering downtown & then having to wait to get into the parking garage.

You would be run over going under 65 in the HOV lane.(Ouch) Those rat racers can be so impatient

I remember Beltway traffic. Amazing. Rush hour starts sometime around 6:00a and wraps up sometime after 7:00p.
