I got a pretty serious ticket on the BQE - 81 in a 45. The expressways have limits at 45 - which is a bit ridiculous.

I live and drive in New York City all the time.

It's actually often fun when you are not dealing with traffic and stop lights.

I occasionally take 1 a.m. drives around Brooklyn and Queens. The Jackie Robinson is a bit of a blast - with a really nice curvy section right in the middle.

I am not a reckless driver - especially compared to many drivers in NYC - and there are moments where it can be a lot of fun.

There is a New York City reference in the book The Driver - where he plans to lap NYC in record time. His inspiration is the drive through Paris in the 70s... an amazing short.
