When we were planning to move from Fort Worth to Los Angeles, Grete and I had plenty of people warn us about the “crazy LA drivers.” And the first time we drove out here, it was, honestly, a little crazy. People speed around at 85 mph as a norm, weaving in and out of each other.

But this week, I drove around in Texas again, and found myself thinking “crazy Texas drivers” a lot more often than I think about crazy drivers in LA. But these crazy drivers putter along at 50 mph on an Interstate! I just can’t understand why you’re going somewhere if you’re obviously not in any hurry to get there!

I guess “crazy” just depends on perspective.
