    Correct on the humidity, but they have lots of nice, courteous, and friendly people, and most of them know how to drive sanely.

    The drivers here scare me. The tailgating while doing 75MPH freaks me out.

    Those tailgaters are just people from CT, NY, & MA who moved down there with their jobs. They're condition to drive the exact same speed as the car ahead while following at 1/2 car length. I'm sure the natives are perfectly safe drivers.

    You forgot AZ, CA, and NV.

    Panbanger - I guess the Dallas area is somewhat like Phoenix, crazy drivers. Most of my time in Texas was the panhandle and when we drove to the coast (Corpus) all the slow drivers moved over for you to pass - but I guess that was years past. Nowadays, everyone has to hurry up and do something, even if it's wait in line at the next traffic light.

    Nah... Those drivers from the north are fine because they KNOW how to drive. Even if the style is slightly more aggressive, it's very give and take, and it works.

    The natives are sunday drivers, who rarely move with a purpose, don't know how to merge (entrance ramps are meant to get up to speed! Merging at 20mph will never go well!), and just generally don't pay any attention. In the state of Texas, it's wise for anyone exiting the highway to yield to the, "service road," because the, "service road," has a yield sign, but the Texas literacy rate appears to be woeful if driving is any indication.

    And then there's, "Bubba." Bubba likes to drive his pickup truck (which he only owns so he can feel like a man and ruin the environment. He doesn't necessarily know why the environment must be ruined, but he believes it's the liberal media who wants us to think saving it is a good thing, so ruining it is the obvious course of action that must be taken. 10 miles to the gallon? Far too good for gas mileage!) as fast as he can because he saw it once on nascar... He never even considers a blinker, no matter the circumstance, and is often found driving using his wrist, keeping his hand dangling in front of the steering wheel (I guess that looks cool...?) and spitting into a dip cup in the other hand. Bubba often uses bumper stickers and decals to show his beliefs on the back of his truck. While annoying, and dangerous, Bubba should never be honked at or approached because he probably has about 20 guns in that truck to further compensate a lack of manliness...

    Driving in Texas is very dangerous. It drives me nuts. Makes me want to get a car with a meaner sounding horn because import sedan horns aren't cutting it, and I need it often! hahahahaha.

    Alright, I'm done ranting... LEARN TO DRIVE!!!!!
