Didn't live in Omaha but went to college in York. My brother, who suffered strokes from a brain injury, stayed at Quality of Life for a while as well. I driven through it and got good experience in it. I am not a fan at all of Omaha. Lincoln is way better, although it is full of speed traps. Omaha is hard to get around in and I have heard a lot of horrible stories from there.

You realize that Omaha is set up on a grid basically right? Numbered streets run North and South. Named streets run East and West. Wow. So Difficult.

If I had a choice I would totally live in Lincoln. I love that place.

But Omaha hasn't been so bad. Just a bigger population which means there are more douche bags to deal with.

omaha's hard to get around in? wtf? easiest place to get around in, all the roads are straight, when you are heading north, you keep going north, unlike in Lincoln, stupid roads like capital parkway, cotner, sheridan, highway 2 and 6, shit, you can't hardly get on one street and keep going the same direction. fucking van dorn, hate that street.

You asked a question in your OP "So my question is....what gives?" and now you are getting responses.

I fucking hate Lincoln. It's good for 3 things. Tailgating, Sker games, and getting shitty ass service at restaurants from spoiled fucking college kids who don't give a shit.

that was my point sir...i wasn't expecting pleasant answers....

That response checks with the chart. Every time I see a moron driving, they very likely have an Iowa license plate.

This is so damn true.

I'll be driving here in Omaha and my wife we'll see some complete idiot weaving around behind us and I'm always like, "it's an Iowa driver, how much you wanna bet?"

Then sure enough as they fly by me doing 20 over the speed limit and one wheel over the center line, there's that blue and white fucking license plate......usually all bent up from hitting so many curbs and trees and fire hydrants and what have you.

Houston is pretty easy

We have loops and highways that just stop.

Our highways have free lanes and toll lanes

Some roads you have to have a toll tag on your car

Some roads just change names


Highways have nicknames. Sometimes it has 2

Don't forget the county names on those Ioway plates where 3 people actually live in that county, my experience is their doing 30mph on the interstate.

One of the things I dislike about this new software here is that if you start typing something and then delete it and come back later it just saves it without you even knowing it.

So I have part of a message about Lincoln and then the other part below is my actual message.

Iowegians are the worst drivers. They drive 10 miles under the speed limit with their turn signal on for miles.

I can see chucky flip-flopping and becoming an Iowegian fan before he leaves our state.
