when I lived in Finland and in Indiana during Uni I would always drive 2-3 car lengths apart, stop at all stop signs, let people in, use my turn signal, never honk, and always wave. Now days I always am running on the 680 running 85 in the jeep or 90 in the mustang, I am usually bumper to bumper on the interstate or 1/2 to one car length on the city streets, I now do the California stop where ever I am, I honk hourly, I flash my lights at dummies changing 5 lanes at a time, no longer use my signals due to people speeding up and blocking me, I dont let people cut me off or merge at the last minute, I take corners like my TJ is a race car, I no longer worry about speed bumps, and the hazard lane is used when some A-hole is going 45 in a 65. I am still nice, but californians and the CHP are ruthless and most people dont pay attention so I have to drive like everyone else is drunk.
People in the Midwest and Finland hate me when we go back :driving:.
