Drivers here almost universally drive like 80-year old women, slow down to 5 mph to take a turn, and will do just bizarre shit like stopping in the middle of the road for no apparent reason. It seriously drives me insane having come from Detroit where people actually drive with some balls, and will do 90-mph...past a cop.
What do you expect. You live in Bellevue. If there is a worse place to drive in the state of Washington I don't know about it. The Bellevue police have been training the locals for decades to drive like little old ladies. Add in all the Microsoft millionares and there Ferrari's and thats what your get. Go to Seattle once and a while and discover what its like to dirve in a city with a police force that has better things to do than bust speeders.
