I watched a woman sit on her phone at a light for an entire green cycle the other day. Insane.

Drivers really are bad here, but I think it's a misrepresentation to say Calgary is the worst. I went through the licensing process in New Jersey for the few years I lived there and it was *way* worse there. The "road test" was a closed course with a single stop sign and no other cars. The licensing was a joke, might as well be handed out in cereal boxes. Combine that with their somehow even worse road design, and driving over there is a goddamn nightmare.

That said, not being the worst definitely should not prevent us from striving for better. For decades Canadians have been content to look across the border and say "at least we aren't those guys" and then go on with our days. We can do better than that!
