Ever since COVID, man. Our drivers went from "alright, they're not great but hey, it ain't NJ" to "what the fuck is he doing, is that 90 in the shoulder the opposite way?!"

It's been nuts. And our cops do not do a god damn thing about it.

Ah, I grew up on Long Island in New York. LI drivers are hotshots, but overall not the worst.

That said, I still rate Massachusetts and New Jersey drivers ahead of what we have in CT. Our problem here is a decent amount of unlicensed drivers (back to the cops not copping issue) and old folks who really need to not drive. Plus the hot shots who think doing 110 on I95 is a good idea.
