Charlottesville has managed to ace another nationwide comparison, this time Car And Driver has ranked us among the top 10 ‘Best Cities For Drivers’. Our win is predicated upon the total days of sunshine per year (218), our limited number of traffic cops (16 in the city), and our proximity to Skyline Drive (“arguably the most scenic drive east of the Mississippi”). UVa, Dave Matthews, CLAW, and Blue Moon Diner round out the notes for our city. Virginians battles with excessive speeding fines probably would have held us off of this list, had they not been repealed for being unconstitutional. [Info] [Photo Credits]

Excessive fines were struck down in Charlottesville?? That is good news, now Floozy can get back on the road
That is good news SP… more money for me to spend on Montrachet…..
And yet I saw you drinking a cheap zinfandel the other day- how the mighty have fallen
Actually it was Arbor Mist which is even cheaper. Since my affair with Tiger Woods ended, times have been tough. Weren’t you quaffing a Pina Colada?
Werewolves of London is one of my favorite songs so I will drink a pina colda and pretend it is Trader Vic’s.
So what size driver does Tiger use?
Actually he only let me play with his balls.You know, Clinton rules and all that.
something about your story seems hard to swallow
He gave me a gift certificate to Brown’s Dry Cleaners for Xmas.
BTW when did they get WiFi at Albemarle Jail?
No they thought you would just have to do without next time you have to “dryout”.
I put it on your list for Santa but i think your just getting coal in your stocking again.
(you really need to cut down on picking up miners when you drink)
Pretty sure Albemarle Jail is for guys SP… oh and put down the crack pipe. It’s making you write utter gibberish.
Your a woman? Woah my bad, that pants suit you were wearing might not have been the best choice.
Your a woman
err shouldn’t that have been you’re? Fucking hell I hope you don’t write for a living. You spell worse than Ian and he’s shite at the best of times.
Leave me out of this little miss worshiped.
Oh yes! The one time you spelled a word with >1 syllable correctly. Now go and fix the headline on that stupid Dtown rap story.
Your right of course, was still getting over the fact that you were a woman. The good news now is that the jail has a place for you to chill, so it’s all good.
yes I did that your/you’re on purpose
No you didn’t you lying little shitbag.
“No you didn’t, you’re a lying little shitbag.”
Fixed that for you
Knock you’reself out buttwipe
hahahahahahaha
So you don’t wipe your butt- well that sounds quite unfortunate
Actually, Albemarle jail has a huge female population. One whole floor is dedicated to chicks now.
Did.Not.Know.That.
Jailbait, if you look anything like your avatar, you’d need to go to jail to get laid. That is fugly!
this coming from a zombie hamster?
complaining about people in cville being bad drivers = never having been to a real city
not to mention trite.
Wow. 24 comments about absolutely nothing. I’m not sure that’s a record, but it’s impressive.
I’m was just wondering last night what the record is for a two person battle on cVillain. While I’m sure there must be a longer example than this one, it’s still impressive, most impressive.
Obviously not, never ever.
And just because I feel like providing some cinematic culture:
It’s like Seinfeld all over again.
A sharp eyed reader just sent me an interesting study, also released this month, noting that Charlottesville is #29/30 on the WORST cities with traffic jams. TomTom provided the information for the study, an excerpt explaining it is reprinted here:
Top 10 Best City For Drivers, Top 30 Worst City For Traffic Jams… [Info] [Thanks Eric]
that list is bullshit, unless 70% of miami’s roads are in the everglades & no one’s ever heard of them.
too bad the city still cant get all those wonderful roads clear of snow.
