I found people in California, in general, to only care about themselves, other
people be damned. It was especially prominent in the South Bay area near San
Francisco. Lots of BMWs on every corner in Mountain View and each and every
one of them trying to blow you off the road to get somewhere they didn't even
need to be.

Yea, like Cape Cod is that much different from California. There is nothing
wrong with BMWs on every corner and if they blow you off the road, then your
car is too slow or you are holding-up traffic and driving like an old fogie
on the way to the senior center. :-)

That attitude does not exist on cape Cod. get sometravel time in before you
judge. Yes your right In cALIFORNINA BMWs are on every corner just blowing
people off of the road. And in califoria that is how it is. On the cape we
do not think of ourselves as much and do not see the need to blow people
off of the road as they are people just like us

But then, who do you blow off the road? You have to have someone to blow off
the road! Here is Southern California when you get blown off the road there
are usually bullet holes in your car. :-)

Many drivers in California, especially here in SoCal, are obnoxious like that.
Regardless, I find your statement to be an obnoxious, overly-broad, and
patently inaccurate generalization. "Crappy driver" doesn't necessarily mean
"selfish in all other aspects of life."

And I've only lived here for a few years. I'm sure people who have lived
here longer would be even more offended.

Rather than offensive, I find the ignorant to be entertaining.

Skip is right.

The homocidal maniacs are in Boston, not Cape Cod.

I've visited both places... have friends in Boston, and have driven the
Cape from Hyannis to Provincetown. Boston drivers are much closer in
personality and driving habits to Los Angeles drivers, than Cape Cod drivers
will probably ever be.

I find that comment amusing since many of the working class, hence drivers
in California, are imports from across the US and all over the globe...

Considering I live near Minneapolis, I will take you comment as a note to
myself not to plan on retiring in Cape Code or moving their for work.

As far as the rest ... general courtesy for your fellow human being is
appropriate in all parts of the USA.

My comments on selfish aren't derived from the lack of courteous driving
habits in California. It derives from my experience with people there.
Nobody smiles when you see them on the street. The only smiles you get are
from wait staff hoping for a tip. When I was there, the people just seemed
like they all lived in their own little anonymous bubble with no concern about
the people around them. Northern California is beautiful; one of the most
beautiful places to live in the country, but I am not so sure I like the life
style.

I am speaking strictly from my perception of the people that I met while
working out there, which was for nearly two months in 2003. You know, the
only native that I ran into that showed any interest in the people around him
was a guy working at the Enterprise Rent-A-Car depot in SFO; the poor guy was
a Dot.Com reject and seemed much happier doing what he is doing now rather
than what he did previously.

Now, Texas ... that is a state with people full of personality and sociable
conscience.

It speaks more about the people who chose to reside there than it does about
the land ... don't you think?

Right. And if the bad press keeps people from moving here, so much
the better for those of us already here.
