...about the Bay Area.
Things that i have noticed that have gotten worse since i left. The freeways SUCK. The fast lanes on 580 and 680 is the same smoothness as the slow lane on 80 up here after the big rigs have used their chains. i thought i was gonna get whiplash tonight.
Second thing i have noticed is doing 70mph is too slow, everyone else is doing 80, kinda annoying when your in a big truck and like cruising at 70.

I would even say 80mph is too slow. Whenever im on my bike I get tailed gated all the time and I ride 80-85mph in the fast lane.

I was born and raised here in the bay area, yea shit is fucked up now, foos be driving hella stupid, you could have that baby on board sign and foos still disrespect, that's why when I'm in the fast lane and people wanna tailgate I just let them pass me up and let them kill themselves if they want.

I just got back from Phoenix. I couldn't believe they actually drive the speed limit there. LOL... I was on the freeway doing 75mph and was passing people like crazy.

They have speed cameras on some of the freeways out there.

I'm not even going to start about drivers in the bay.

They got rid of them at the beginning of this year. Nobody was paying the fines and it was costing the state too much money without the fiscal benefits they were promised.
