Dulles Access Road/ 267

Question- how does a cop determine if you're a legal user of the Dulles Access Road or not? Example: If you're picking someone up from the airport and you get pulled over for being the only one in the car? Picking someone up you may or may not have flight schhedules, etc.

Take the Dulles Toll Road if you are worried about it. Either print some flight info for whoever you are picking up (you want to know if their plane is delayed when you get there, right?) or take the toll road. If you get pulled you need to convince the officer you have airport business, otherwise they'll write you up like all the "other" toll dodgers.

There is video and license plate readers at the airport entrance and exit. It can be confirmed that you went there or not. They watch for cars that just loop around and then pull you over by the 28 exit. It is also a federal ticket, you have to go to DC to fight it. Just don't do it. It will be expensive and a lot of time wasted when you get caught. My two cents

It's perfectly legal to use the Access Road to go to the airport. Your problems as a solo driver in HIV hours will start when you try to exit before reaching the airport.

You are an idiot. Its not a federal ticket. Go sit in Fairfax court when the airport cops have court. They write tons of these tickets.

Simple typo. How do you explain turning "you're" into "your"?

"HIV" is a typo, "your" is illiteracy.

No, having your fingers type a homophone of a word that you had correctly in your head is a result of a common shortcut that signalling centers in your brain take advantage of as a matter of simple efficiency. The greater the number or complexity of things you are thinking about while trying to type, the greater the number of such errors that will occur.

If you want to focus on true illiteracy, consider the numbers of people who type "looser" when they mean "loser" or "tenant" when they mean "tenet". There are at least hundreds of such people at FFXU, and all of them are Republicans. A few of them even believe that there is such a thing as "Holland Day" sauce. Ack!

Stop at the gas station at Dulles...buy something...keep the receipt...and head out on 28 to your destination. I've been commuting this way for 23 years out to Sterling. I've been stopped 9 times during that span and I have gotten ZERO tickets.

I have been told several times by different people to just go to the gas station and get a cup of coffee and keep the receipt. I often wondered if it was really worth it but after 23 years that would add up.

Well, your examples are WORSE illiteracy. I'm not sure it makes sense to blame it on homophones, although I suppose it's possible that some people's brains just work that way.

It takes two seconds of proofreading to fix your to you're. It's illiteracy.

It would take two seconds once you found it. Which might not happen at all even if you did proofread, since the switch that was set to let you type "your" as being correct is still set to let you HEAR it as being correct. The larger point of course is why would anyone invest actual time in anything more than the most cursory sort of proofreading of an FFXU post?

Yes this would be incredibly stupid. You would waste a lot of time and money doing this and it works negate part of any gains you made bypassing traffic. More importantly going to the gas station or buying something is not a valid reason to use the access land. In fact it's explicitly cited as not valid online by MWAA for several years now.

Fail...

The Dulles ACCESS Road is moving at the posted speed or better 95% of the time and it's free. (Yes, I pay for a cup of coffee or newspaper or bottled water each morning...but it's ALWAYS less than the toll AND I get a consumable to boot.)

The Dulles TOLL Road is moving at the posted speed or better 75% of the time and you pay for that.

MWAA can talk and post all the shit they want...23 years, 5 days a week, twice a day...ZERO tickets.
