Reply to comment by realmadrid111 in Why do Vermonters do The Line™️ rather than passing? by Ulimaatissaq

Yep. Interested to see OP cite New Yorkers as an example of people who prefer to pass. Maybe they should know better? 'Cause I learned why "doing the line" is the way to go back in my heedless early 20s, after doing a 180 off the Northway from the left lane and needing a tow out of 2 feet of snow in the ditch. Turns out snow can unexpectedly drift, even the day after a storm.

Cite New Yorkers? Like an MLA Essay?

Jokes lol.

But my partner is from New York, and says this is something they’ve never seen before, and I’ve never seen it happen before coming from Montana.

So it was new to both of us! But we have learned it’s a safer way to drive. :)
