What's the deal?

I promise a more extensive post in the next day or so but I think its necessary for me to mention a few new NJ discoveries.

1) The whole no turn left thing. Ive discovered that this phenomenon is worse than I originally thought. Its not that you can NEVER turn left. Its that you cant turn left, MOST of the time. At first I thought this was more reasonable but in reality its worse. What this means is that driving becomes a big guessing game if you need to go left. You cant know if you need to be in the right lane for a round about or in the left lane for a turning lane. Utterly ridiculous.

2) 35 cent tolls. My newest and possibly biggest quandary in New Jersey. As you can see, the picture above is a 35 cent toll area that makes sense. It doesnt show the lane for ez pass but you can clearly see the lane for exact change and the lane where change is necessary. Apparently people in NJ are walking piggy banks because that change needed line doesnt exist. You have the ez pass lane and the exact change line. So basically if you have a hundred dollar bill in your wallet but no pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters, you are up a creek without a paddle and will probably get hit with a huge fine. It makes absolutely no sense. For example, the other day I came upon one of these tolls and had to pull over to see what I could scrounge up. I ended up throwing a dime, a nickel, and TWENTY pennies into the change counter. Quite an experience.
