How to know where a driver is from!

How to Identify Where a Driver is From

One hand on wheel, one hand on horn: Chicago.

One hand on wheel, one finger out window: New York.

One hand on wheel, one finger and head out the window, cursing, cutting across all traffic lanes: Philly.

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

One hand on wheel, one hand on nonfat double decaf cappuccino, cradling cell phone, brick on accelerator, with gun in lap: Los Angeles.

Both hands on wheel, eyes shut, and 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 backseat: 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 feet on the brake, throwing a McDonald's bag out the window: Texas.

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

Two hands gripping wheel, blue hair barely visible above window level, driving 35 on the interstate in the left lane with the left blinker on: Florida.

One hand on the wheel, the other holding a cell phone, driving 130 mph and four feet from another car's bumper, late for happy hour, while flashing headlights to tell others to get the hell out of the way: Washington, D.C., Beltway.

Ain't that the truth.

Here's one: Driving with one hand on the horn, the other one in the radio to raise the volume, while pulling a ninja move to smack the kids in the back, all the while travelling 80mph on a 50 zone - in reverse because you missed your exit: San Juan, P.R.

It used to be that anyone driving with their lights on on the daytime was from Canada.

With day time running lights standard on most cars now that no longer works.
