I don't know how perfectly they drive on the West Coast, but if you want some thrills try using I-95 south of DC, I-495 [The Beltway] and I-395. There are plenty of DC-area Americans here who will validate that statement.

I love America and Americans. Is it that that you don't like Brits?
We are quite happy one the west coast, in general, and I am quite happy, in particular. What I have a problem with are bigoted generalizations, towards any group. Your comments, don't strike me as being attempts at humo(u)r, British or other. They strike me at attempts to make easy, tired jabs about a nation that you have limited exposure to. Though, I'm happy to be shown to be wrong
To your question, I quite like Britain and it's people. It is the nation that gave me some of my dearest friends and the woman I love
