I have been forewarned about the driving! I’m not going to lie. I’m a little nervous. How would you define the driving etiquette?

Welcome to NJ. If someone honks are you, don't take it personally :)

Yes, I’ve been told New Jerseyans aren’t afraid to communicate how they feel— on the road or otherwise. Lol

If someone let you in line, or turn in front of them be sure to smile and wave at them.

Definitely less patient and fast, not uncommon to see people going 90+ on the turnpike sometimes.

Weird ass intersections, jughandles(not that bad), way more roundabouts, on-ramps and off ramps can be crazy as hell depending on time and place, some people say yield signs don’t mean shit around here. Bunch of small things in random places you’ll come to find.

Oh lord. And I thought Memphis was bad! I will work on honing my defensive driving skills these next few months before I move.
