Come to Philadelphia & drive the Schuylkill Expressway.

Garden State Parkway north of Piscataway has you covered. Bonus locals using the breakdown lane to pass at 90MPH

Fond memories of driving home to visit my parents in south Jersey, speeding up a bit to keep up with traffic on the Driscoll bridge, and suddenly realizing I�m doing almost 100.

Also, last time I drove from jersey to Albany and took 287 I remember the signs in jersey called it the tappan zee, then a hundred yards across the state line the signs called it the cuomo bridge.

lol I did this with an aluminum eddy current standard when I was in tech school. Got my ring finger stuck in the 3/4" hole. Luckily they were able to get my finger out with some ultrasonic couplant

one of these:

Last I heard they still tell the story of the dumbass airman who got his finger stuck in the eddy current standard

You're clearly not trying hard enough. If it doesn't take two or three tow motors standing up you're not anywhere approaching fuckler.

Yeah bailer one of the few things I�ve had beat a forklift, was using the lift to wiggle a jammed up bail out. Had my forks a bit to low and didn�t realize I�d caught the bottom lip of the thing as the back of the lift slowly started rising up off the ground. Weirdest sensation cause forklifts just don�t do that in my experiences.

Look at this guy who actually listens when corporate says to never move more than one bunk of lumber/drywall or one pallet at a time.

It happens all the time in LTL transport. A forklift can lift up to about half its weight, but there are a lot of things out there that weigh more than that. 12 foot pallets of metal bars weigh way more than a forklift can get off the ground, but it can lift one side of it and then drag it out of the trailer. You never try to lift it high, mind you, just enough to reduce friction.

EDIT: By "standard forklift" I mean a sit-down lift that weighs in around 9000 pounds.

Sometimes 95, being 95, or the GWB is so hosed so we take the Palisades parkway up and across the Cuomo bridge and get on 84 up to 495. Seems out of the way but if there's trouble in either of those two spots then it can be a lot easier a drive. Until you get near Boston.

Lol if you consider any of that "driving in New York," lol at calling it the Cuomo Bridge, and I'm still confused about getting to the Cape via Boston, although driving in Boston is really terrible.

Have you researched driving classes that might help you? It's not a good idea to pilot 2 tons of steel at freeway speeds if you're a danger to those around you.

I�ve taken driving classes. I just suck at physical objects in 3d space. I have terrible proprioception, too. I�d love to stop hitting my hips on stuff and tripping over things and dropping items. If anyone has heard of PT or something that makes you better at visualizing the movement of objects in spacetime, I�m all ears.

It's kinda sad that you've decided your time and convenience are worth more than the lives of the people forced to share the public right of way with you.

Failed state, or awesome state? In a truck with a machine doing this you'd employ 1 or 2 guys. This method employs at least 5 guys (3 we see plus the driver and camera man). End unemployment, have everyone shovel salt.
