Could be confirmation bias, but I always noticed the most dickish drivers around had NH plates. I figured it was folks coming down south and thinking that's how you're supposed to drive in the city, but now I wonder if it's more this kind of thing.

New Hampshirites will of course tell you that MA plates drive the absolute worst. The whole “x state plates drive bad” thing is like this little harmless parody of cultural xenophobia.

But trucks with NH plates drive the worst, no doubt.

Trucks with NH plates are typically aggressive, but in my experience, Suburbans and Tahoes with CT or NY plates are typically aggressive AND clueless

All trucks are aggressive. It just is how it is, doesn't matter where they are from, all the same doucehbags buy black Dodge Rams, it's a personality trait.

It's 100% confirmation bias haha. You see 1000x more terrible drivers with MA plates but ignore it because it's not "different", the second it's an out of state driver it's "ohhh of course they are from insert state here".
