    I've lived in the area for years, only drove in Boston when I got lost and ended up IN Boston.

    It's lousy when you approach rotaries in Massachusetts. People create second lanes so they can try to PASS you as you enter it. They know they aren't supposed to, but they do it anyway, and why???? Because EVERYONE ELSE DOES IT!(except me, that is).

    Just take care, look over your shoulder real well, and exit with determination. It's common here that people on the rotary overtake you on the right.

    True story; a friend of mine moved to the USA, and initially kept his "European city" driving style ... within a few weeks he was labelled by the police as an "unsafe driver". I think it was a stamp in your driving licence at the time (30 years ago)?

    European drivers, without wanting to generalise, typically drive aggressively but alert. You need to claim your place on the road, and then you get it.

    Gotcha. Now it makes sense. I shut my cable off a lot of years ago.

    We just had a Tim Hortons open up in town. And I'm happy cause what I really needed in my life was to be able to get doughnuts without even getting out of the car.

    You just got a Tim Hortons ... :happy093: when I was in western NY there was a T.H. ever other corner. They make great soups and sandwiches as well as great coffee. You could smooth out hard feeling with contractors with some T.H. coffee and doughnuts. :eatdrink013:Making me home sick. :sad024:
