Saw one crossing Rt 80 in Killingworth a few days ago.

Oh yes. I was being tailgated by a pickup pulling a flatbed and maybe the guy was texting or smtg because he did not see my stop with turn signal (with AMPLE amount of time with signal on and braking) and he had to hit the brakes so hard that there was a screech and a pungent odor of burning rubber. I heard and smelled it before I saw how close he came. The long skid marks remain on the road to this day, and this was months ago.

People just don’t think. Or maybe they don’t realize that accidents can happen in a split second.

Speaking of which, today on the Merritt I saw:

• driving in the breakdown lane
• cutting into traffic with no signal
• driving with no lights on and they didn’t notice even though there were no streetlights

All out of state plates.

Ok we are far from the worst state for drivers but that was funny

There is a campaign about it.

Guilford and Madison both have the small town New England feel. Both are especially great if you have kids, as the schools are excellent and there is a lot to do. Just know that while the quaint is strong in both towns, it also means you’ll be driving to most big box stores when you need to. They are sleepier in the summer but don’t get the tourist influx that the Old Saybrook area does so it’s not as jarring of a change when summer is over. Honestly I’d consider commute over everything when choosing.

This is fantastic, thank you
