I live in DC Metro area too. I got caught a couple of weeks ago for driving at 75 / 55 in an early Saturday morning in a wide open road. Besides the $190 fine, that's 6 bad points on my record for 5 years. The officer was nice enough not to give me a reckless driving. In Virginia, driving at 80mph or 20 above speed limit is considered reckless driving. Call it crazy. But it's the reality.
