Good to hear you are ok.

My question where you in the shoulder? on the right of the solid line (all 4 wheels)?

But most importantly, you were not hurt.
i take offense to that!
haha jk, at least where i live, DE drivers are 3-4x worse. no one has ever heard of left lane=passing lane. its more of a "drive wherever the hell you want" kinda deal


70 yr old husband and wife street racing FTW

but seriously, glad you are ok.

I wouldn't go that far.
That's fine. I'm just going by what he typed, and not necessarily by what actually happened- I wasn't there. Yes, others are responsible for controlling their vehicles, however, EJ could have been cited as contributing to the accident.

Let me repeat, very glad noone was hurt.

NJ/DE drivers ranked up there. Generally NY'ers travel in the left lane, too, but move over when a faster vehicle is approaching. I still stand by my initial assessment- Penna drivers are oblivious.

It may be that they're so used to the turnpike being worked on that they think the freeway is but a single lane.

Older, Florida drivers are also bad about doing 60mph in the left lane.

MD/DC drivers with a mix of Va are the worst IMO

I would say that AL, AK, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, DC, FL, GA,

































































HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MA, MD,











































MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NY, NC,


































































ND, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT,




























































VT, VA, WA, WV, and WY are the worst drivers!
















































YAR!

We do have a ton of old people up here, but most of them ride the bus or dont leave the house.
