“Study: D.C. drivers worst in nation” made my day. This is because I have a "handicap".
My handicap is I HATE to drive. In fact, I would rather get stuck with a pin than drive. As I was growing up, my uncles graciously supported my emotional crutch and drove me when I couldn't take public transportation. As I got older and moved away, I relied on my now deceased husband, Ron, to cart me around.
Since he passed away, I am on my own. Stress built up over these dark years. I did not get comfort for my driving-induced trauma. Many locals gave me that "it's just you" look whenever I complained about the area driving habits. When my old friends visited, they agreed with me but that didn't help my case with the aforementioned locals.
Today, I am vindicated by Allstate's annual Worst Drivers report. Five years in a row, yep count 'em, DC drivers are the worst in the nation!
Ta da. Now I can die happy. Things come to those who wait.
