I didn't learn about Texas until about month ago. You, however, do not know the concept of horrible drivers. Allow me to give an example:Lonestar wrote:Everyone Knows Texas.
My father was meeting a group of Japanese businessmen that were visting here. They were muddled and confused by the directions given to them, but being the trusting people they were, they followed them
Example (note: road numbers changed to protect your sanity.): "Alright, you want to make a right off of 128 west onto 93 south-" "Wait, that should be taking me nouth." "Actually, you'll be driving North-east. Now-" "What? North-East?! How does-" "Don't worry about it, now you want to...")
On this trip, which involved the strip of sanity-destorying road known as the MassPike. You do not know fear until you have driven on this road, and find yourself barreling along at 90mph[sic]. In the right lane. And people are passing you. In excess of 120mph. In the breakdown lane. While it's raining.
No, I'm being perfectly honest. We also have potheads who watch DVDs on portable DVD players with the pedal to the floor.
Anywyas, these poor gentlemen were witness to a fine example fo the Massachusetts driver, in the left lane, cross four lanes of MassPike highway in under 100 yards to get off at an exit.
When this was explained to my father, being the veteran Masschusetts driver that he is, immediatly reacted with the following words: "Yeah, and?" not realising that thesee people were foreigners, and were quite wholely unused to our system of driving (Anything is okay, as long as there isn't a State Trooper watching)
This post was in perfect seriousness.
