Well, if you're going to be that way, you need to add one of the
following lines, as well.

s/most Americans/nearly all Californians/

I've been to Boston.  I've been to NYC.  I've been all over Jersey.  I
had the misfortune of living in California.  Even Jersey's worst is
far better than the average Californian driver.  One of my buddies in
Victoria, BC cracked the joke, "Even [Québecois] drive better than
Californians."  I think it's a tossup, but he might be right.

I'm pretty much convinced at this point that no Californian manages to
make it to thier destination in one piece in the rain without divine
intervention, totally colorblind or don't know what a traffic light
is, and if thier turn signal is on, it was probably that way when they
purchased the vehicle.
