    One hand on wheel, one finger out window: Chicago

    One hand on wheel, one hand on newspaper, foot solidly on accelerator: Boston

    One hand on wheel, cradling cell phone, brick on accelerator: California *with gun in lap: L.A.

    Both hands on wheel, eyes shut, both feet on brake, quivering in terror: Ohio, but driving in California.

    Both hands in air, gesturing, both feet on accelerator, head turned to talk to someone in back seat: Italy

    One hand on latte, one knee on wheel, cradling cell phone, foot on brake, mind on game: Seattle

    One hand on wheel, one hand on hunting rifle, alternating between both feet being on the accelerator and both on the brake, throwing a McDonalds bag out the window: Texas city male

    One hand on wheel, one hand hanging out the window, keeping speed steadily at 70 mph, driving down the center of the road unless coming around a blind curve, in which case they are on the left side of the road: Texas country male

    One hand constantly refocusing the rear-view mirror to show different angles of the BIG hair, one hand going between mousse, brush, and rat-tail to keep the helmet hair going, both feet on the accelerator, poodle steering the car, chrome .38 revolver with mother of pearl inlaid handle in the glove compartment: Texas female

    Both hands on steering wheel in a relaxed posture, eyes constantly checking the rear-view mirror to watch for visible emissions from their own or another's car: Colorado

    One hand on steering wheel, yelling obscenities, the other hand waving gun out the window and firing repeatedly, keeping a careful eye out for landmarks along the way so as to be able to come back and pick up any bullets that didn't hit other motorists so as not to litter: Colorado resident on spotting a car with Texas plate.

    Four wheel drive pickup truck, shotgun mounted in rear window, beer cans on floor, squirrel tails attached to antenna: West Virginia male.

    @Kovalis, the plate will only tell you where the car is from, not the driver.

    A slight correction: West Virginia males ride four-wheelers and have a confederate flag somewhere on the vehicle

    That's funny! What's not funny is that I see just about every one of those types on the road every day that I drive in to work. :cry:

    This is why I take the train. :rolleyes:

    I've been known to exhibit more than a few of those behaviors, AND toss a demanding child into the mix. I like myself much better when I can keep my driving to a minimum. ;)

    Bel, we used to call that an "Oregon Roadblock." :lol:

    At least people on this side of the country know how to merge onto highways, and don't (usually) come to a dead stop at the YIELD sign, or barge into traffic and proceed to do 40...

    Going 40 mph on a road where you want to go 70. -> Not from Kentucky.
