Favorite Driving Memory

es it is nice to go on a drive, blast your music, and sing like nobody is listening. I like it for the solitude. When you are driving in a car no one is really paying attention to you. Also, the people you drive past do not know you and will probably never see you again. When you're driving in a car you know that you are completely alone and no one can hear you. It is nice to have that reinsurance where you can think and talk to yourself and really reflect on things in your life.

Just follow the rules of the road and you'll get along fine. The drivers aren't 'crazy California drivers' like the aggressive folks I encounter on the roads every time I visit LA. Things are pretty orderly. Don't get too creative.

Favorite Driving Memory
I grew up in this city, so I suppose my 'driving highlight' would be cruising through nearby Encinitas in the couple of years of high school after first obtaining my driver's license. The music was always great classic rock and I could drive down the 101 and get a burrito any time I wanted. Very lib

Favorite Road
Highway 101

The road is great because it's a low-stress highway. There aren't ever too many cars on it, and it's lined all the way up and down with amazing small businesses and restaurants to stop at. I've spent many afternoons with friends just cruising and hanging out along that road.

Favorite Driving Memory
The first time I went to the beach in Carlsbad. As you get close Coast Highway you can see the water, but not how beautiful the beach is until you get there. That is the best memory of driving in Carlsbad.
Favorite Road
La Costa

I like driving this road because it is not too congested. You can do all of your shopping, eating and filling up your car right by my house. Also, if I have gone somewhere when I am on La Costa it means I am close to home.
