can't say that i've ever seen anyone use that maneuver before and i've lived in VA all my life. i will say that maryland/DC drivers are by far worse than VA drivers.

It's called "opportunity driving" and is ticketable.

The fact of life, however, is that a trooper will seldom be in the right place at the right time.
