In San Francisco for the first time and you all drive like assholes

[Kismet]

I'm in Texas where we drive on 7 lane highways at 90mph and nothing scares me more than the traffic I experienced in India.

Roads there are more of a suggestion.

Nightmare.

Driving in Kosovo is a mess already, I hate it when I'm there and have to drive. But that picture just scares me.

I want to go to India. But I would never drive there.

 

[Syriel]

how does it compare to, let's say, Italy? Or the real deal: India?

As I said, SF isn't even in the same ballpark as Hyderabad. Most American drivers would just break down and cry if they had to drive there.

 

[Fat4all]

nah, my ass hole is a decent driver

People calling San Fran drivers aggressive... Lol, have you never left the state? People here are tame.

So South Florida, NYC and Southern California.

Who else?

I've been to SF once.


I would never, ever, ever, ever, ever drive there.

I learned to drive there. Everything else is simple by comparison, although every city has its own quirks/types of idiot drivers. I don't know what the people calling SF drivers aggressive are talking about. SF's drivers are too slow, don't pay attention to where they need to turn until it's too late, and are continually turned around by the infinite one-way streets. And, of course, there are the hills. The passivity of SF drivers is infuriating after living in LA for 15+ years.

Nothing beats southern Italy.

Don't ever go to Chicago

We're not bad drivers overall. Just have no patience for people who drive under the speed limit and don't know how to properly drive in the city limits.

People who drive Mercedes can fuck off though. They're easily the most consistent bad drivers with privileged attitude on the road.

Come to Boston on a weekday, if you want to see some hyper aggressive non-committal bad driving!

 

[cvxfreak]

Cairo was my worst experience riding in a car. No seatbelt in the Uber and the driver didn't hesitate to speed toward our destination.

After Cairo, I won't complain about traffic in the developed world ever again.

Are there statistics of cities with the most automobile accidents? I'm curious to know.

I guess I can look when I get into work.

 

[Deleted member 41178]

Dude, please.

Don't be comparing SF to Fury Road until you've driven in Hyderabad.

Makes SF look like a bunch of kids in big wheels.

Oh my god this is so true, I didn't drive myself out there but I was a passenger every day whilst I was working over there and it is absolute chaos.

I've never seen anything like it.

Wow, weird OP. When I, eurotrash Belgian, was in SF last September I was amazed how well everyone behaves on the road. I was really nervous at first, but totally unnecessary apparently.
