    When in Rome :notsure:

    I travel for work. Sometimes I make appearances in local threads and use the TW corporate AMX card and expense everyone’s beverages.

    Driving out here is crazy?

    By comparison to out west, you guys use your blinker, know the left lane is for passing, and wave sorry. If this is crazy, you should travel more.

    The “shore” of CT is one of the better places in the state. Enjoy and thanks for asking for our opinions. Hopefully they were helpful.

    Hello CT! Man, what a nice evening. The a/c is off and all the windows are open. People and K9's are comfortable.
    Hoping you are all enjoying and that you have a fantastic weekend.

    Maybe I’m lucky. Anyone who thinks it’s bad here been out west? Or been to Europe for comparison?

    As someone who has driven on every one of those states, my observations still stand correct.

    Wyoming doesn’t seem that bad cause it’s a big state and most the shit drivers are tourists.

    I get out of CT plenty and sure I get bad driving around me but Everytime I come back it turns into a war.
    My buddies house is 10 miles away from mine in the quiet corner of NE CT.
    I'm driving on backroads to get there, speed limit 30-40.
    1 trip to his house last weekend and I had a lady pull right out in front of me off a side street almost t-boned her.
    A dump truck driving up the middle of the road, had to blast my horn almost went in the woods.
    Stopped a a stop sign guy took a left to short almost took out my front end luckily he corrected it.
    I stop to get a sandwich get out in 10 car parking lot and I almost get backed over walking to the door.
    This all happened within 10 miles on the same day!

    Oh yeah there's a cop that likes to do a speed trap right next to my house.
    My street 30
    Everyone's speed 50-60
    Idiots get pulled over frequently.
    Let me know how you feel about backing out or even pulling out of your driveway in a heavily wooded area with people driving that fast.
    You can barely see 2 houses up and they are on 1 acre lots.
    Deer get hit cars get hit and so far 10 years I've been here I've seen 3 dogs get hit.
    You keep telling yourself CT is a nice place to take a ride:rofl:

    CT's biggest driving issue is no one knows how to maintain speed up a hill - & CT has a LOT of hills. :facepalm:

    NV's biggest driving issue (back in the day) was distracted drivers. Now everyone has infotainment, cell phones & still all the amazing things to look at out there. Must be pretty bad out there now.

    I'm portuguese, born there and moved here when I was 12. Turning 38 in a couple of weeks... Go back every couple of years to visit family. Driving there can get "hairy". But driving on the highway is a great experience. There the left lane really is only for passing. People fly by you and make it look like you're not even moving. LOL

    Morning everyone. Happy Saturday. Looks like it'll be a nice day outside, so as soon as the Mrs gets home from the dentist, gotta tackle this pile of wood chips and spread them out.
