Wow, does my mileage vary. Whatever model car I’m in, my
automotive experience is the same: boredom, interspersed on long

terror. In fact, I credit the humongous traffic tie-ups of the NYC- Baltimore run with turning my lifelong dislike of confined spaces
into a full-blown case of panic disorder. Way to go, Rt. 95!
Oh yeah. This is fantasy driving we’re talking about, not the real
thing.
i didn’t drive much from the early 1980s until recently - I didn’t
even have a license from 1987-97. Now that I’m driving again, I’ve
been impressed by how much more traffic there is - everywhere, even
in a little burg like Gloucester, Mass. - and how much ruder drivers
are. It’s a long way from taking that phantasmic Porsche up to 120.
