Back to School in NJ

After a wonderful August of commuting the SUV driving, cell phone yaking, red light running lunatics are back. The commute this week will be an exercise in death avoidance as the flowers of womanhood try to organize their lives and ruin the lives of their children. If only someone could create spray on tranquilizer that smells like perfume....

sorry for the rant but at least I got my heart rate up a little higher this morning.

Also noticed a massive pickup in traffic and bad drivers this week in Jersey. Not sure which is worse, high school drivers or school bus drivers.

As I've said many times before on BF, I'd rather ride through the bar district at 2am than past an elementary school at 7:30 am.

It is "crazy out there" as mentioned by HenryL above. Even as an adult, I feel like my miniature summer vacation away from traffic is over once school returns!
