Oklahoma

I regret to inform you that it's not really much of a joke; this is actually how a lot of people think in Oklahoma.

When I worked as a slot attendant in Oklahoma we used to have preshift meetings where, as a get-to-know-your-coworkers-better exercise, they would let one of us ask a question which each person would answer in turn. One time I asked "When a lane is closing on the highway, do you get over when you see the lane-ends-ahead sign, or do you wait until you're at the cones?" Man, I should have just asked about people's politics or religion. Everyone went out on the floor mad at each other after that.

Oh, I don't doubt.  The most memorable on-the-road case for me personally was in Oklahoma.  Some regional trucker was riding the dashed white line in order to prevent anyone from using the left lane for its remaining ¾ mile and, if anyone got close, he'd move over into the left lane itself to block them even more.  The highway had a decent-sized left shoulder, so I simply passed the vigilante dude on the shoulder instead.

That happens SUPER frequently tbh...
