I blame the entire problem on mass immigration and liberals for supporting it.

Remember, I am not claiming that his recent absence is due to being behind bars. That possibility was suggested by another forum member.

Yes exactly. Northern NJ/ Eastern Bergen county is essentially becoming a city of average density.

Unfortunately, the residents of this area still think that they are living in a suburb and can drive their cars everywhere, at any time of the day. Also, roughly 500 people die on NJ roads every year.

In 2018, 512 people already died on the roads:

Meanwhile, in 2017, 335 people died because of violent crime:

I could not find 2018 numbers.

So good luck with all your driving...

I always stare at the cars that drive badly and it is always the pickup trucks and the retirees!! This state is awful! Too many people retiring in NJ, too many people owning monstruous redneck or fancy pickup trucks and they show themselves off on Instagram!!

So move. If you have nothing good to say, go somewhere else. And your fixation on moving vehicles is peculiar.

Have you ever driven in another major metro area like Boston or LA or Atlanta or DC/NoVa? I’m not talking the city, which of course is annoying, but the whole metro area. It’s just as bad as NJ if not worse
