I see a lot of people talk about how bad traffic and drivers are here, but I don’t really see it. It’s much worse in other places I’ve lived. Or maybe I just don’t notice because i’m the shitty driver.

Moved here from Texas a few months and....

Yeah I've never felt I was gonna die here while driving. In Texas? Idiots and drunks and drunk idiots all driving 75 on a stroad is fucking terrifying

Same.

Just don't like how the Highway isn't more straight on top of how its under construction.
Also how taking a wrong exit on the highway costs you like 15+ minutes to correct.

Seriously. It’s a breeze. I actually think most people drive pretty slow.

Can you really drive any faster tho?
Place is curvy as hell even on the highway.

For normal streets where people should be walking great. Because people aren't doing a 45+ like crazy people where people are crossing.

Before moving here, I had never seen someone in the far left-turn-only lane cross 2+ lanes of traffic to turn right. I have seen it 3 times in 5 years now. Also my first month in Providence, my parked car got totaled by someone that wasn’t even drunk.

Go to CA, people will cross 5 while on facetime trying to do an audition while they're driving
