Having driven in North Jersey, Manhattan, Pittsburgh, Columbus, Los Angeles, and Every-freaking-where In Michigan, I have to agree with you.
a) What I like about NY drivers--they are swift and confident and drive in such a fashion as to keep traffic flowing.
b) What I don't like about NY drivers--they lay on the horn in a New York Minute, have been known to turn left in front of you from the lane on your right, and other mind-boggling maneuvers. To which, see a).
I prefer the NY drivers to the indecisive Michigan drivers. Pittsburgh drivers are much the same as NY but not quite so deft, so watch out if you're on foot.
