Lol yeah I think VA rules are stricter? But again I'm not sure because I've heard that you don't have to have insurance in order to get ya car registered and on the road in the state of VA hence another reason why we are seeing so many VA tags in Bmore these days. Ive also heard that yall pay taxes on yall cars every yr? Idk what's true but if you provide some insight that would be great.

Maryland doesn't require yearly inspections on their vehicles combined with no traffic enforcement means you have a lot of uninsured and unsafe vehicles driving around the city. The number of hit and runs are a bit of a consequence of that. Moving from VA it seemed insane that y'all get your car inspected once and then that's it other than a emissions test every now and again.

So glad u got all the info! I'm absolutely sick of hearing about all of these damn hit & runs, especially fatal, in this city and in this state. From my pov, it seems the amount of them has significantly gone up over the past few years. This too has to be a reason why so many are experiencing inflated car insurance rates. Second to that, these are lives that are being impacted, some loosing their lives. To go on about your day as if nothing transpired, is the equivalent of a person who shot someone and is on the run.

The intersection at Boston st and Ponca, only minority of drivers seem to understand the lanes kinda shift as you go through the intersection and ontop of that like every 3rd car drives straight through the right turn only lane. I'm amazed there isn't an accident there every time I get to that chaotic mixing bowl.
