Witnessing karma catching up in person can be a beautiful thing. Today, one “smart car” found that out hard way while trying to evade the massive traffic jam on Interstate 95 South from DC to Richmond.

While heading south with countless other drivers (many of which were  headed to the Republican Party of Virginia’s 2013 convention) a “smart fortwo” styled car tried to drive up the shoulder of the road, only to be immediately pulled over by an unmarked police car.

Despite drive times from Northern Virginia to Richmond reportedly ranging from 4-6 hours, at least there was a view of schadenfreude along the way.
