Massachusetts Trip

HEY!!!!! People from CT and NY have no business judging our driving

Your just as bad as we are

Now, now, Lurky, read what I said! I didn't say we drove any better. And the term only applies to bad Massachussets drivers, not ALL Massachussets drivers! There are bad drivers everywhere! If you (the generic "you") drive badly with a MA plate on your car, that's what I'm going to call you. If you drive badly without a MA plate I'm just going to drop the "M" at the beginning!

No hard feelings!

Absolutely no hard feelings. I have never even had a speeding ticket, so i immediately excused myself

I have a perfect driving record at 40 yrs old

I am not saying i dont speed, but i am a sweet talker

My husband witnessed it once and talks about it to this day

The most unbelievable driving i see is usually the ski traffic coming south on rt 91 after a weekend on the slopes. We know better than to get on 91 after 4 on a sunday night. I dont care what the plate says....they all deserve to get the M dropped

I'm in absolute agreement there!

I had a contracting job in Boston for 6 weeks. Nice place but they have the worst most aggressive drivers I have ever driven around. I have done a lot of driving in Manhattan and they are real bad but Boston was worse.

I gotta say that the worst drivers I've ever seen were in Moscow. They make any NY City cabby look like a model driver's ed. student!

JP is fine - we lived in JP for six years and loved it! It's a very gentrified place these days. The part of it near Roxbury is sketchy, but Pondside and Sumner Hill (where we lived) are just great.

Colorado cops used to be like that. If you get pulled over now they have the ticket filled in except your personal info. They say if they pull you over they have no choice but to write a ticket.

When I grew up here you could get off with a warning most of the time. Now all the cops look like Marines and don't smile. How things change.
