She stayed here for our general enthusiasm for life, shown by our willingness to take chances, love of a laugh out loud moment and, most of all I’m sure, our damn good manners.

Great post, I think it’s mostly fair (if someone inaccurate because I don’t think our gentle Japanese author ever drove in Jersey) and very amusing.

Certainly never drove in Massachusetts. When I was still living in NJ, I thought the way they drove to be psychotic (never mind downright rude) when I visited Boston.

My Brit in-laws are always surprised by how relatively well-mannered American drivers are. I don’t know if they expect to see people shooting at each or ramming other cars, but they thought American drivers were more orderly than British drivers.
