Convoy protesting COVID-19 mandates begins beltway circuit
A supporter rides a motorcycle near the New Design Road bridge over I-270 in Frederick County as the “People’s Convoy” passed through the county as they made their way from Hagerstown to Washington, Sunday, March 6, 2022. HAGERSTOWN, Md. — — A large group of truck drivers who object to COVID-19 mandates drove two loops around the beltway surrounding Washington, Sunday, deliberately moving slowly to impact traffic and make their feelings known to lawmakers in the nation's capitol.
The convoy was moving normally — albeit slowly — and while some congestion was noted, news outlets reported traffic was able to flow around the convoy. Many vehicles had American flags, while some flew Don’t Tread on Me banners. Protesters staged at the Hagerstown Speedway in Maryland during the weekend before heading down a single lane of Interstate 81. Their plan was to drive onto the Capital Beltway, circle it twice and then return to Hagerstown.
