How to drive in Phoenix

<< < (2/2)

Patrick that was a hoot!!! ;D

I was in Phoenix back in the 70's so it wasn't bad then.

Recently I have driven in Atlanta (god-awful) and DC(god-awful).
If this were a vote I would have to say DC is the worst-anytime day or night.  My son lived there for 2 years (Alexandria).  I still shudder to think of it.  Sue you get the trophy!!

I imagine LA and NY are bad too, tho.

Joe thanks for the link.  I send stuff like that to my son in NPR.

Me?  I have a 20 min. commute to school. I pass 1 red light and 2 stop signs.  All the rest are corn fields and cows!!

Patrick:
When I posted this, I also was thinking most of these could relate to many areas.

You folks think driving an automobile is trying, drive an 18 wheeler amongst all the madness.

Interesting article, Joe.
I noticed that of the 13 vehicles towed, most were bikes. Bikers! ::)

Gena, I miss the 1 signal, 2 stop signs, fields and cows commute.

Hi Gena,

Your ride to work sounds very peaceful & scenic, must be a nice way to start the day. Withing a minute of pulling out of my driveway I am on I-75 with many wanna be NASCAR drivers, I tend to leave before 6 AM so it really isn't so bad but if I don't get that early start it becomes an adventure real quick!

Hey Patrick,

I suspect a good many of the bikes were towed because the driver did not have a motorcycle license, in Florida you need a separate license for cars and/or bikes, this was not always the case and many of the good ol' boys never got around to getting a bike license (I know of a couple myself) and more than a few (younger ones) buy a bike before getting the license and can't resist driving it even though it will be a giant inconvenience if they get caught.

See ya,

Joe

Thanks for the laugh, Patrick!

And, to think that I thought the "one finger salute" was an indication that "I was number one."
So, I would give them the number two sign - PEACE!  :D
