    Yeah, Boston’s the same. If you’re trying to get where you’re going and you get in someone’s way, they’re fine with it. If you’re in the way because you’re timid, they’ll hate you for it. It takes some getting used to but it actually makes sense.

    Also, it works (for a certain definition) - Boston is #3 in the nation for minor accidents but absolute lowest in the nation for fatalities. We’ll smack into you maybe, but when the chips are down we’re able to do what’s right. There’s some kind of overall statement about the city’s culture there I think.
