Are the posted questions getting worse?

  • Ya'll just stay out of CO and we'll be fine. Fairly safe here, although a little too much traffic.

  • Phoenix is fine except for that pesky little kidnapping stat that has us as the highest rate for the country...dang drop houses.

  • You want bad driving? To my south, I have NYC/New Jersey drivers, to my east, I have Boston/Massachusetts drivers, and to my north, I have the crazy Canadians!

    (Thankfully, not much to the west -- mostly farm vehicles and big rigs . . . )

    NYC/NJ drivers really aren't that bad. Pretty average for densely populated areas. Boston's not great, but still not the worst I've encountered. DC is pretty bad, Philly is pretty bad, Columbus is just idiots.

    Yeah, they're not that bad, because nobody drives! They all take the subway! ๐Ÿ˜€

    Oh, if only. I don't think you're going to get very far trying to take the subway in NJ though.

    Yeah, you're right. In Jersey, they all take NJ Transit and PATH!

    Always amazes me that I can drive up 71 to 95 all the way to Niagara Falls and back (5.5 hrs each way), and nobody tries to kill me until that last mile when I'm on 270....

    Where at in relation to Columbus? I'm around Polaris.
