So I'm finally moving into an apartment next week. I'm living in Tyson's Corner. Any cool places to check out in that area?

omg you're gonna be in so much traffic

I mean, the Tysons Corner mall is the obvious answer. Tons of shopping, restaurants and a nice big movie theater.

Vienna is also really cute, kind of a nice wallop of suburbia.

Reposting this so it doesn't get swallowed up on the last page:

Vienna is also really cute, kind of a nice wallop of suburbia. Maplewood Grill is an expensive but delicious place to eat. Amphora's a good 24-hour Greek diner. Jammin' Java is also in Vienna and they get some reputable acts to play there from time to time.

You're also near Wolf Trap, which is a lot of fun in the summer.

Yeah, traffic seems to be okay heading to and from there. I never hit traffic on the Toll Road because I'm going opposite the traffic in the morning and afternoon.

I settled on Tyson's because I found an apartment for a reasonable price and it's somewhat in between D.C./Arlington and Herndon. So I can kinda get everywhere in 20-30 minutes. I'm cool with that. I can finally start exploring the area after next week!

How close are you to the mall? If you know the answer to that. I'm trying to figure out your geography. Are you actually in McLean or Vienna?

I think it's like 2 miles? I got to the mall in a couple of minutes.

Ah. Now that you're settling in northern Virginia you really should come visit Old Town Alexandria, which is about 5-10 minutes from where I live. It's awesome. Great restaurants (there's even a Ben & Jerry's store right by the Potomac River which makes it worth it alone). And it's super historic obvi.

It's pretty good! I don't like it better than Philly (but mostly just 'cause all my friends are in PA/NJ) but it's a cool area. I went to Public Bar in Dupont to watch one of the games, which was really fun. NoVa is obviously boring in comparison to DC but I like my area and it's pretty convenient to everywhere I wanna go.

For real though, why do cops in the DMV area suck?

I've gotten 0 speeding tickets my whole life (and I speed all the time) and 2 (!) in the past 2 weeks. One in VA and one in MD. And I just learned about the wreckless driving law in the area where you can be thrown in JAIL for going 20 over?!

PA/NJ/NY for life.

I have legitimately never gotten a speeding ticket but I think that's because I grew up in NOVA and learned to be more cautious as a result. They really will pull you over.

Yeah, it's crazy. In PA, I guess they're more lenient? And on top of that, because I still have a PA driver's license, I just have to pay the fines and not worry about the points, which is nice. PA doesn't honor the points of any other state.

But that wreckless driving law. Mindblowing! I thought the officer was joking, but then I found out a friend of a friend spent the night in jail for going 23 over.

My first ticket ever was in Virginia when I was 20. I'd already gotten pulled over a few times in Mass but always got off with a warning.

And I got the reckless driving charge, too. Had to get myself a public defender to appeal cuz the judge sentenced me to 90 days in jail for going over 75 MPH on a desolate stretch of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge (during the middle of the day w/ perfect conditions). A mess. :disgust:

Jeez. So did you get out of it? Hit with a big fine?

What a ridiculous fucking law.

Had to pay like $500 but a lot of that came from court costs after appealing.

Just drive the speed limit, you fuckers

There's really no reason to ever drive 20 mph over the speed limit. Unless you're driving to vegas, because the speed limit is 70 but traffic moves at 100...and at that pace, driving the speed limit is fucking dangerous

Drive as fast as you want as long as you make sure there is always one car going faster than you are in your near vicinity.

The only reason to ever drive 20+ over is, as torri said, if you're going to Vegas. Or if you're on the I-10 going to Cali, because the speed limit is 75 and everyone is going at LEAST 90.
