SoCal driving is pretty aggressive in my experience, in San Diego some drags nearly every block had a stop sign so everyone was rolling them.  I'd be about half way walking across the street with the walk sign telling me to walk and somebody would quickly make a right turn, easily could have mowed me over.  I think starting from SF up to Seattle there is a different shift in driving, with Portland probably being the most exceeding cautious to the point of stupidity.  The inability to merge and people having no idea where they landed on a 4 way stop and people waving me to walk across places they should just keep on driving are amongst the things that annoy me the most.  I truly haven't noticed many cops handing out tickets... I've seen more bicyclists get tickets downtown :lol:.  Are you sure we're talking about Portland, OR? :lol:

Everything is better than it was the last time.  I'm good.

If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care.

It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence.

I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too.  If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

Sounds about right.  Yesterday I drove to the airport and there was a motorcycle cop on 205 hiding super ninja style radaring.  Then at the airport there were 2 cop cars.  Those black ones with tinted windows.  They were parked in such an area that they must have been looking to give out traffic tickets.  That's how it is pretty much every day here.  You can absolutely count on cops setting up speed traps somewhere on 5 or 205 every day.  Then there are the red light photo tickets.  I agree with you that people are sometimes too aggressive in southern california.  But at least they speed on by and that's the end of it.  In Portland if there's an aggressive driver it doesn't actually get them anywhere.  They just get stuck behind or in front of me, driving erratically.  But in California it pays to drive aggressively.  You can actually get places way faster.  idk what you were doing walking in socal.  You better watch out.  It is nuts.  It keeps everyone on their toes.  That's the real reason why drivers are more aware in California.  You can't just drive around in lala land all the time like P-town.  Also, road rage in Portland is different.  People in Portland are more apt to play games and rage for less reason.  In California people aren't drawn into road rage as much because there is far more possibility that the person you are fucking with is going to pull out a gun and start shooting.  People feel a lot more secure in Portland to act like assholes because most drivers around here aren't criminally crazy or straight up gangsta.  People in Socal are aggressive, but it's not personal other than you are a car or person in their way at that moment.  On the point of merging you may be right.  It's super dangerous how Oregonians will be too afraid to merge and virtually stop on an onramp while cars are flying by.  But I also hate how Californians merge sometimes.  There will be 2 lanes merging to one, both going slowly under the speed limit.  Everyone is merging into one lane like a zipper, one car from one lane one car from the next lane.  People in Oregon get it, it's fair.  But in California almost every time there is some asshole who attached their car to the bumper in front and insists on not letting a car between them on a merge.  WTF?!  But often Oregonians are over the top with their fairness vigilance.  The whole 4 way stop thing is ridiculous.  But fun.  You go, no you go, no seriously you go.  I'm not going til you go so you better go.  It's like a game.  Are you more courteous or more in a hurry?  Well you find out when you roll up to a stop in Portland at anywhere near the same time as another car.  The weirdest thing that I see regularly happen around here in the name of fairness is when there are 2 lanes that merge a mile down the road, but one lane is stop and go and the other is open.  Sometimes a car will get in the clear lane and pace the car in the other lane.  Just so, you know, no one unfairly gets ahead of everyone else.
