Paul Barnard noted, if you have an 11-42 as a back-up, you could even head north towards Georgia and the Carolinas and gt by.
The metal nightmare is scary in a car... and going into Arlington area and I will never be on that one or riding in Arlington, dangerous roads. The couple I am generally rolling over is on Beach Blvd over the intercoastal, the Acosta downtown, and a couple that go over the tracks. You can get nowhere here unless you cross a bridge due to the River.
