    I live in western South Dakota, right along the main route to The Black Hills and Mount Rushmore. There is not a single day that goes by that I don't see some dumbass cutting across 3 lanes of traffic to make a right hand turn, turning in the straight lane, going straight in the turning lane or going 20 mph down the road that is clearly marked as 35 mph, and its always someone from another state or Canada. I just want to get a big sign that says learn to drive asshole.

    Fl has the worst drivers in the country hands down. every time im there i see a car on its roof in the ditch. its got to have something to do with everyone speeding like mad, and 5 lane highways each way.

    and most think turn signals are a option.

    I know just what you experience, and deal with it every day too. On the west coast of FL is a road called HWY 19 and it runs north and south on the coast. The most heavily congested area is from st pete all the way into Pasco co, over 40 miles of it is an extreme 6-8 lane nightmare, especially in the winter when all the snow bird and vacationers from other states visit local attractions and beaches, they are lost, talking on the phone, or some other activity other than driving, not to mention the elderly people that only drive once a week to go to church or the pharmacy get prescription medication. They stop at green lights, drive through red lights, turn left from the right lane, turn right from the left lane, go 35 in a 45, and take 5 seconds to go when the cars infront of them have already pulled away from them at a stoplight. I have seen a guy driving red corvette get over taken by a fully loaded 80 ton dump truck, sad.

    At our local mountains we get so many tourists during the winter season when it snows. Its a 2 lane highway going up the mountain and idiots will park on the side, half way in the road still, and then go sledding/tubing right on the side of the damn freeway and go flying right into the road. I have seen way to many people, including kids almost get hit because they are being stupid. Its nothing to see the road scattered with the remains of sleds and inner-tubes. I am just waiting, one day for a kid to get hit because their parents are dumb.

    Then we also get the people who don't understand California/ local people driving and cause accidents or just don't know how to drive

    I think its a tie between Ohio and New Jersey having the worst drivers ever. I dealt with so many morons when I was in Ohio over the 4th, and while of course the majority of them were from Ohio, all the other idiots had Jersey plates.

    theres no worse driver then a NY driver in NJ, i dont know what it is, but they act like the laws dont apply to them. but then again, they are also lost. lol


    both NY and NJ have a low breaking point if you cant keep up with the flow of things. we like to move here.

    Hahahaha Scotty... Now now... People who come from a state the requires you to go in a circle in order to go straight, turn right to go left and heaven forbid you miss your damned exit, 10 mile turn-around... Certainly can't drive!

    I've driven through NJ quite a many a time to my angst... and lets not forget NJ requires drivers to bear right and I could go 90mph and those Jersey drivers never give way(get out of left lane with nobody in front of them)!

    Lolz... ; )

    Actually, I believe Connecticut drivers are the absolute worst! Massachusetts drivers are all speed daemons and NY... Well we got out share of winners just due to population density! Hahahaha!

    It was once told to me like this...
    Anyone going slower than you are morons... Everyone going faster than you are crazy!
    This was from the Nun at my local parish!

    when i worked for a nantional roof co, they had awards for things, some were just for fun.

    this one guy was from mass. he was voted "worst best driver" lol

    he drive 5 mph under the speed limit, if he was on the phone, 20 under lol he was so scary to ride with, but had no tickets, and no accidents.

    Omg haha... CT : )

    yeah, I call those guys my RABBITS, I let them jump out there and clear all the speed traps too, will tail them about 1/4 mile back. Radar detector works well too, lol, a worthy investment! Definitely saved me one or two on the NJ TPKE and up by me.

    I had to fly into the city one day, was buzzing down the Taconic... Freaked out when I realized 3/4 of the way down (in 1/3 the normal time), that the damned thing was OFF! Hahahaha... Better lucky than good! But it was wee early n the a.m., nobody on the road.

    You trying to say something about my driving skillz yo? In a nutshell there are too many people that aren't paying attention in any state. NY drivers are the worst left lane idiots I've come across. They simply feel there are no rules (this only applies in NYC, there anything is fair game)

    Jug handles and round a bouts.. they were designed for NJ people..lol Florida.. I dunno about anyone that does 100mph into thick fog. And..I'll never understand the TN drivers.. speed limit was 65mph and the flow of traffic was doin 50mph, cause we could ya'll
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    Don't even get me started on the dumb****s trying to pull their huge assed campers down the interstate that feel they need to stay in the left hand lane going 55mph.

    my favorite parts is when they are driving past 50 signs that say no trucks or trailers over 5,000 lbs gvw lol like move over jerk off. then they wonder why the cops is pulling them over.
