I used to be a pizza delivery driver as well. I have always given a $5 tip to my delivery driver, and if I order a lot of pizza for a large group, I compensate accordingly. Recently, though, gas prices have come down to 2003-2004 levels. I disagree with delivery charge Dominos and other chains are still imposing on deliveries since fuel has come down. I combat that by only tipping the driver

I really don't understand why you guys are such haters on Manassas.

$1.99 in Front Royal last Sat. night, $1.99 in Gainesville on Mon night. $2.09 in Manassas this evening, down from $2.15 this morning. Prices are coming down and I love it!!

Why do police feel they need to BREAK DOWN doors rather than just OPEN them? (Assuming, of course, that the door in question is unlocked)

I realize this is transient area, and also the highways in this area carry a lot of thru traffic so it is very common to see out of state tags. But, it seems as though there more cars with Florida tags around here than any other state. I see new cars that were purchased in the area (I know because of the "Pohanka" or whatever dealership sticker on the back) that have Florida tags on them. And

Answer: (6) None of the above. An illegal most likely cannot read English anyway so it wouldn't make a difference to him.

OK, I'm a transplant here originally from Michigan. I just want to say that there are rednecks everywhere!! Go to some of the rural towns between Grand Rapids and Traverse City and you'll see just as many rednecks as you do in the south. The only thing that differs is their accent.

MBF -- Elaborate on what you said about the people who received these letters complaining about it. Exactly what did they have to complain about? It fascinates me that someone who was called out on their irresponsible driving actually has the audacity to complain about being called out on it. Now that I know this exists on Fairfax's website, I will definitley utilize it on extremely blatant o

The law states that anything over 20 m.p.h over the posted limit, OR anything 80 m.p.h and above shall be considered reckless driving. There is no speed limit anywhere in Fairfax County that is higher than 55, hence the reason 75 can get you a reckless in FC.

Well, these replies make me feel better. I wouldn't pass a stopped school bus on a normal occasion, but like I stated above, I was getting ticked off. (I know, it's no excuse)

Nahh, I didn't see the stop sign. It was actually probably coming out as I was completing the pass...

OK, this morning around 0630 I was travelling on Route 29 heading towards Fairfax (from Centreville). There was a pickup in front of me in the left lane. There was a school bus in the right lane stopping to pick up students. This ass in the pickup would not pass the school bus when he had the oppurtunity. (when we were moving, and the school bus's lights were NOT on) So, the next time the bus

I used to be an over the road truck driver. I've seen driving habits all over this country. Virginia has the most courteous drivers of anywhere. Case in point... I was travelling on I66 WB wanting to get off on RT 28 North last Fri evening. As usual there was a long line of traffic waiting to exit on 28. I was in that line and a man in a pickup with NC tags came barelling down the shoulder

FIOS rocks!!! I had Cox prior to getting FIOS installed, and FIOS is MUCH faster. I'm just waiting for my DirecTV contract to expire so I can get FIOS TV service.

I'm new to VA, moved here May,2005. We found a decent townhouse to rent in Lorton to start off with. (the rent was cheap) It didn't take us long to find out what a shithole Lorton was!!! This past May, we moved to Centreville. Let me tell you, this is heaven on Earth compared to where we lived in Lorton. IMHO, crime isn't any worse here in Centreville than anywhere else in the DC region.
