Dallas and traffic Options

[jonathan83]

Ok so I'm visiting my sister in McKinney (north of Plano) and actually I was a bit nervous because I had never driven in Dallas traffic. Honestly, the biggest city I had driven in was Lubbock, so you can imagine.

However, I've been here 2 days now, and oh my gosh. PEOPLE ACTUALLY USE BLINKERS.

People know how to drive...and they are NICE and let you in when you use your blinker too! I think I've fallen in love with this place just because of the drivers.

Oh, and right after I decided to make this thread, I read this story on CNN about how the worst city with road rage is Miami, and this is what else they say:

The most courteous drivers can be found in Portland, Oregon; Pittsburgh; the Seattle-Tacoma area; St. Louis; and Dallas-Fort Worth, the survey found.

So I'm not making it up!

I like to tap slow drivers lightly on the rear with the front end of my car. It sends them the message that they better get over or they'll soon be dead.

1. my truck bumper is higher than average and would fuck most car hoods up.

2. my brakes work well.

3. not intimidated. I have hurryuppers get pissed at me a few times a week. to the point of honking and cussing and flipping off. they've yet to want to talk about their anger issues when presented with the opportunity.

for the record, I am talking about going the speed limit in town...not freeway driving. freeway, I go the speed of the flow of traffic...
