experiences of Parisians have been generally positive.
I live in one of those vacation destination areas. When I was a kid a
popular bumper sticker in our area was the terse and to the point:
Tourists Suck
Another popular one is
Why do they call it tourist season if we can't shoot them?
I appreciate that there is lovely scenery along our roads. I also
understand that if you are used to roads that measure miles per turn
rather than turns per mile, ours can be a bit intimidating. But,
Please, use the pullouts and let the folks who use these roads for
transportation get to where we need to go.
As an aside, the rudest people on the road, when it comes to pulling
over and letting traffic by, without a doubt, worse than drivers of
Priuses or Volvos, are the Harley riders, just a bunch of wanking MBAs
playing dressup.
