Except in Ohio. I'm pretty sure we Ohioans know that the entire world drives better than we do.
Well, Cincinnatians, at least. Cleveland drivers seem okay (and I say that through gritted teeth).
No, no, no, sir. No more chick pit for you. Come on.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Punishingly Intricate
Oh yeah. And it's just "Jersey driver."
I'm very formal in my insults!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Apropos of driving insults, I remember being all chagrined at going off to college and finding out that much of the rest of the country calls slowing down at a stop sign, tapping the brakes, and zooming away a California stop. In the Bay Area, all my driver's ed teachers called it a Hollywood stop.
Now I'm all curious about what LAistas call it.

Because books.

Actually, I once cracked up a friend when a guy cut me off. I flipped the finger and yelled, "Fuck you, sir !"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

All I've heard it called it here is a California Roll, but that wasn't a native.

Our wings are not tired
In San Diego we always ranted about the Arizona drivers. I believe we called them Zoners.

We don't blame our bad drivers on a particular state, it is just, Tourists!
I always figured the red car being pulled over in a pack of speeding drivers was a matter of it being the easiest one to pick out. Bright yellow would work too. I've deserved my speeding tickets. Too damn expensive so I have slowed down.

In Pennsylvania, it was called the Minnesota Rolling Stop. Not a lot of Californians driving around Pennsylvania.
Me, I call it efficient.
