I’m fortunate to live somewhere with very moderate traffic.
Indeed, you are.
This has nothing to do with traffic...the citizens of soviet Red Hampshire (home of the ‘Weed State Project’) drive just as bad as their ideological brethren from the south. (I live on a rural road in soviet Red Hampshire...speed limit ranges from 25 to 30...most citizens drive 50 or better. Police are too busy executing swat raids against innocent gardeners to bother with speeders.) The explanation in post #17 is spot on, although he forgot to mention that ‘Massholes’ are a bunch of arrogant pr*cks.
