Living in New Jersey is an experience, to be sure. Even the "rural" areas are much more populous than I am used to, and driving is on a whole other level here. Really, its not that New Jersey drivers are so bad, its just that most of you see their driving taken out of context. If you drive here for a little while, you'll realize; you have to drive like that, or you'll never get anywhere.
Its funny, because besides the driving, one of the most common complaints people have about Jersey is that the people are so rude. Which is true. But here's what you have to understand: yelling at people and insulting them is like the national sport of New Jersey. People rarely get honestly angry with each other, its mostly just a show. And to be honest, its probably the best kept secret in the state, but New Jersey-ites are actually really nice people! Some of the nicest people I have ever met! I have never had such friendly neighbors, and the people I work with are SO much more polite.
So don't believe everything you read, kids. Jersey's not so bad once you start to understand it. :)
