No, tourists are not all the same. When we complain about hating tourists, the ones in OPs post are the ones we’re talking about.

They go Mad Max on the roads, feel entitled to absolutely everything (EV. RY. THING.), treat the locals like shit and then stand in the middle of traffic to take pictures. (Entitled and dangerous.)

We have terms for people who come up to leaf-peep and drive like they think they’re on a NASCAR track, depending on the license plate. That guy who just shot up your ass and stays bumper to bumper with nobody else on the road behind you two? Masshole. That one that sped up to forty-five in a twenty, just so they could cut you off on a merge when you had right of way? Connectic*nt.

But if you’re here to relax, see some trees, get some tree blood for your pancakes, not litter, we are more than happy to have you.

No-Establishment, yep! Locals drive like that because 1- There is nowhere that needs to be gotten to, that fast, in VT! Chill, dudes. 2-Reckless driving kills people. Killing people, bad.
Another rule we follow is this: If you hear a siren, you’ll see people pull off to the side of the road and sit there until the ambulance/fire truck passes. This goes for both sides of the road. It may seem silly if you aren’t used to it, but there’s someone in an emergency that needs help as fast as possible and a clear road makes that happen.
