End of Year awards

Here are my awards for 2005 ( I know it's not the end of the year but I don't think things are going to change between now and New Years):

Worst Roads:
2nd Runner Up: California
1st Runner Up: Kentucky
Worst Roads: New Jersey..... Driving on NJ Interstates is a lot ike driving through a field but without the scenery and a lot of times you're paying a toll for the priviledge

Worst Drivers:
2nd Runner Up: New Mexico
1st Runner Up: Kentucky
Worst Drivers: Massachusetts.... As near as I can tell nobody from MA has any idea what the driving conventions are in the rest of America, ie. apparently they believe that if the speed limit is 65 as long as one of them is going 95 and another isgoing 35 they're both OK and there seems to be a general lack of understanding regarding the point of mulitple lanes.

So, apparently the worst place to be is Kentucky since is shows up in both categories (or in NJ surrounded by cars with MA plates)

Most Improved Roads since the early 80's: Maryland. I've been telling people how horrible MD roads were since I had to drive on them in the old days. They're very nice now. Sorry.
