[Shotimes] New Jersey... was: Subarus and stuff

[Mike Wojton]

Trust me.  Every state has crappy drivers, and most of them don't know how
to use a turn signal.  The one thing that really bugged me when i got here
was how people don't like to merge onto the freeway.  Their first instinct
is to slam on the brakes and sit on the berm waiting for an invitation.
Pretty stupid, not to mention dangerous.
