CAR WARS

Now that we’re getting close to the Oregon border, a minor rant about driving characteristics between OR and WA.  When we first started in Oregon, we were amazed at how polite drivers were.  They made it easy to merge, always waived you on first at intersections, and would stop immediately if a pedestrian so much as glanced at a crosswalk.  Wow.  Among the best of all the states we’ve been in.  Then we got to Washington.

Yikes!  We’re voting WA drivers the absolute worst we’ve encountered.  Rude, impatient, dangerous.  They pull out from a side road at the last second, causing heavy braking and a torrent of cursing.  They pass on two lane bridges.  They tailgate.  Generally, they’re asses.

So, Oregon si!  Washington, bah!
