Not doubting you, but it's funny you mention that, coming from Jersey, and
all. Every time I go thru Jersey, it amazes me to see how *everybody*
immediately gravitates to the leftmost lane, no matter what. I was able to
do a sustained 80 because the two right lanes on the GSP were empty, while
the leftmost lane was moving at 60-65. Jersey drivers come here (as evidenced
by plates, anyway) and do the same thing.

Noone in Connecticut can drive. Period. The anti-driver stance of the CT
gubmint must have taken away whatever spirit they had.
