Is it just me or do people drive extra aggressively around Owings Mills? Admittedly, most of my experience is with folks on 795, but some of them getting off on the Owings Mills exits seem to drive like kamikazes.

Owings Mills Blvd (and branching roads) are a mess, and Reisterstown Road from where it terminates near BCCC in the City all the way to Main Street in Reisterstown is a hellscape - especially in the stretch between Dolfield to the West and McDonogh to the East.

With that said, 795 is the fucking Fury Road.

I refer to it as the 795 Super Speedway!

So I used to work in OM (for over a decade) and didn't realize just how bad it was until I stopped going there every single day. Now I work in Hunt Valley and anytime I go to OM (sometimes I'll pickup at the target out there if they have something in stock that Timonium doesn't) and WOW. It's bananas the way folks drive over there. I assume it's in part because of how much more dense the population became over a short period of time but idk.

Imo, the suburbs have some of the most aggressive drivers I have experienced in this state. Owings Mills is definitely in the top 5. I think it's the long boulevards there with very few breaks for pedestrians, and all the double and triple one-ways. Also rare street parking. People treat them like race tracks.
