Reply to Car-Having Etiquette by woodscomma_elle
Alexandria native here. The most polite and not rude thing to do, which could be convenient for them and not an inconvenience to you, is to tell them where you’re going, and if they’re along the way, fine. If not, sorry, I gotta go. The vehicle owner may feel guilty but at the end of the month, who is paying the car note? The insurance? The fuel? Maintenance & repairs? Who is spending TIME behind the wheel? If you continuously offer rides you will become the group chauffeur.

Join some Adult sport leagues (DC Fray used to be pretty fun when I was there), read the parking signs carefully when you park in DC, avoid rush hour if possible, some of the best culinary experiences (from an ethnic standpoint) are the hole in the wall places in Nova or MD. Early bird gets the worm!
