The roads are truly awful. I've been commuting from NJ into midtown for 2.5 years... until I finally couldn't take it any longer. I'm on the train now. |

Vehicle suicide driving into the city from Westchester or FF County Ct. I95 from Ct state line to the GWB is the worst stretch of road in the USA. I don't understand how they haven't fixed anything about this part of a major corridor?
The Hutch is a bit better but you can still grenade two tires at any moment. It just isn't fun owning a car in the area anymore.

It was safer for me crossing the minefield into Kuwait during the first Gulf War than driving my car on the Cross-Bronx, the Hutch, FDR or West-side highway.
Your nuts to do it as a DD.

Driving in the city is fun. Like a third world country - no rules! That being said, Sport plus suspension and 6MT in lower Manhattan is just asking for it. Ow.

My all time favorite is Canal St. I used to cross it twice a day during commute a few years ago. - no lanes - no rules - pedestrians darting across like moving cones - cops standing around lazily, randomly, in the middle of the road, like stationary cones - traffic lights treated as mere suggestions - universal rules apply: he who drives the biggest or the junkiest car, or has the biggest balls, has the right of way. a
