As one who moved from Boston Metro to NY Metro, I can attest that the traffic is much worse in Boston.

Also, though few people believe it when I say so, the drivers in NYC are much more polite than the ones up in Boston.

I found the NYC metro area drivers use their turn signals even if they drive like Mario Andretti. I love driving in Manhattan - it’s better than the bumper cars.

In contrast, I could strangle anyone who pulls into traffic to make a left-hand turn, which seems to happen EVERY TIME I drive around Boston on business.

Don’t get me started on rotaries. Though jug handles in NJ are equally maddening.

However, I’m sure I get cursed out for my Philadelphian-like “I’m at a traffic light turning left, so I’m gonna floor it as soon as I get the green” driving.
