I remember going to NYC for a gig and I had a hotel in Manhattan and I got a lift from a coworker going to Long Island. That highway drive scared the shit out of me. He was changing lanes without signalling and weaving in and out of traffic.
I was gonna tell my account manager about it but my account manager said something like, oh he gave you a lift? did you know he was too scared to drive on the highway until I taught him how?
There are set of rules that everyone follows, so it's more like an orchestrated dance. If you don't know the rules, that's fair to be freaked out in those situations. In Seattle, we have drivers from all over the world with they're own rules, that's got its own issues. I think NYC does too, but most people from somewhere else get a ride from someone who knows the rules, like you, or walk or whatever.
What he’s describing aren’t rules for driving in NYC, it’s just an asshole driver. People generally drive more quickly and more closely together here (the same way we walk), but the weaving in and out is a dick move
