4. Worst drivers? I don't think so.

I can go anywhere in the world and not be intimidated, thanks to the training I got on the streets of Boston.

Boston drivers know what they're doing--when out-of-staters come in, they don't understand the rules (slow to the right, fast to the left) and they gum up the works, and get mad whem people correct them with their horn....

And I don't get into accidents, either--I get insurance rebates every year!

I also don't think people from Maine are the "dumbest" either.

This map is a bit of silliness, I think...
