I live and work in DC. I go to Dallas at least once a year and drive every day during the week and weekend. I agree this would be impossible in Dallas traffic. It doesn't feel as intentionally aggressive as DC traffic, instead it's like everyone in Dallas can't take their foot off the accelerator even if they wanted to. It's hard enough finding a space between two cars to merge, you usually have to just go for it and hope the rear car can find his brakes.

It definitely took me a while after moving away from Dallas to change some of my driving habits. I still definitely change lanes more than most drivers around here - although I do my best not to cut anyone off, and I actually let drivers in here... something definitely not done often in Dallas. It also helps that I went from a 90 minute commute (each way) to usually a 10-15 minute commute here (depending on where I've worked). Smaller towns do have some benefits...
