    WooHoo!! I was in Philly a couple of weeks ago. I got routed onto Roosevelt Blvd at 4pm on a Friday. Wall to wall idiots who wouldn’t even yield to a fire truck trying to get through traffic with its lights on and siren blaring. It was a hook and ladder and I was blown away how they picked their way through that traffic. The guy driving the rear had some big skills and even bigger balls.

    I love the folks from the northeastern states. They are smart and funny and coarse and have their own special logic.
    Some of my best stories come from my experiences there.
    You should take the plunge and make some good stories of your own then share them with us. I'll bet every driver who has been there has a few.

    And here I thought that was only Michigan. I'm glad we are not the only insane state in the laft turn department. :)

    I drive a car carrier so making a Uturn in a regular intersection is usually a no go. So I kinda like the jug handles in Jersey!
