This might be true in a lot of places, but let me introduce a counterpoint: Los Angeles.
We invented freeways, and I’m convinced we’ve perfected shitty traffic. Get on the 405 anytime between 6a and 10p? Gridlock, everyone is going below the speed limit. Get on basically any of our other freeways at rush hour? Yeah, that’s going to be us doing our best impression of NASCAR, driving bumper to bumper at least 10 over the speed limit.
It’s so well known that it’s a meme at this point. Every holiday season there’s a bunch of posts on social media about visitors needing to get with the program. My favorite this year was the “stay the fuck away from the left lane” guy.
Is it safe? Probably not. Is it reality in LA? Absolutely.
