I’m a european who has driven a lot in Texas plus some more around the gulf states.

Hoboy, where do I begin… Just to name a few off the top of my head:

• Headlights are lame. Even at night.
• TRUCKS
• Awful roads. Even Houston, a very car centric city, has roads made from a blend of 80% concrete and 20% potholes
• Speed limits seem to be more of a suggestion
• Tailgating culture
• Zipper merge, motherfuckers. Ever heard about it?
• Average vehicle standard is pretty shoddy. I’ve seen so much that wouldn’t be allowed on the road in Europe.
• Infrastructure and options for non-motorists is pretty much missing, leading to people walking around the feeders
• Police seem more concerned with enforcing stop signs than anything else traffic related. On that note, build some fucking roundabouts!
