Traffic H - "H" as in Hell



For those of you new to the Silver Spring area - the Traffic H is where West and East Beach Drive connect in Rock Creek Park. I drive this way every day and have observed that if you are on the path of the RED arrows in this image, the object of the game is to accelerate as quickly as your can can after you turn left onto E Beach Drive. You win points if you can accelerate quickly enough to keep the cars on the paths of the BLUE arrows from advancing. Also, another object of the game appears to be to ignore any cars on Kalimia Rd - though they do have right of way once it's their turn or if they were there first, it's cool to do a rolling stop and cut them off. They aren't really part of the traffic H it seems.
