<VV> Ventura Convention - "Wild Drivers"

[Sethracer at aol.com]

Cute - Movies are just Movies, Ken!  - LA, while not as laid back  as 
Northern California, is not too bad. I've driven Boston, Chicago, Washington  DC, 
Orlando, Dallas, Salt Lake City, Seattle and more. There is traffic, though,  but 
not as bad as a few years ago. (A recession will do that!) When traveling  
around in SoCal, I tend to drive "around" LA, rather than through, and there are 
 lots of routes around the area. One tip, if you want to be thought of as a  
"native" in the LA area, call the freeways out with a "The" in front of their  
name. As in: "Just take THE 101 north to Ventura." or "I drove THE 605  
around LA to get to San Diego."

There is  probably more to do and see in that area than any other place in the
world  ... the real question is 'How does the average person from a  laid-back
mid-western town safely negotiate the volumes of traffic and the  wild 
drivers 
that populate the area?'  :-)
