400 Crashes

I saw that too, and in a place that never has to deal with those conditions,,( cough), Minnesota, has possibly the WORST drivers I've ever encountered, except perhaps Florida. As if they are proud of that fact. Proof positive, the cell phone has got to go,,

 

The Twin Cities have a fairly large percentage of foreign-born residents (15%), including Mexicans and Somalis. They tend to be even less skilled than Southerners when driving on snow and ice. And the native-born residents are some of the rudest drivers in the nation (excluding my cousins of course).

 

Gives new meaning to the "Twin Cities 400",,,what's that you say, never heard? Well,,,(blowing dust off history book), the "Twin City 400" was a train that in the 30s, went from Chicago to the Cities in 400 minutes. Think about that, you can barely do that today by truck. It had streamlined locomotives capable of 100 mph, but averaged about 80, WITH stops. All aboard!
