Also, with regards to American tourists in other countries, it is my experience that the best Americans rarely if ever leave their hometown much less their country. Other countries often see only those we'd prefer not to claim lol.

That's obviously a generalization, but its more accurate than I'm comfortable with, especially as someone who always tries to be respectful of local culture whether I'm in the next county over or on the other side of the world. Its that insensitive and idiotic behavior that gets me every time.
And as far as driving is concerned, its fall which means the Snowbirds have arrived in Florida. Some people will know what I mean. Suffice it to say I'll be taking my life in me hands when I drive for the next few months lol.
