In Charlotte, we have a lot of people that have moved here for NJ and NY. I have seen both of these activities when driving, and it’s typically people from NJ or NY.
That sounds like some Florida driving to me… along with what I call the Florida green…it’s running a fresh red light so it still counts as green…in Florida. Also getting to your exit ramp from the left lane with out looking.
It’s weird I just saw this for the first time today and wondered what in the fuck was wrong with that person and thought how insanely dangerous it is. I hope it doesn’t become a thing on this coast too.
I wish I could tell you. It’s absolutely obnoxious but thankfully it doesn’t fly too much out of NJ in my experience. In NY drivers like to gun the red before it turns green (at least in northern NY they do) so it would be stupid to try this shit here unless you’re really confident you can pull it off.
Yes we have! More over, we are Garden State! We have that … whatyoucallit… garden (I think).
It’s also where the “Jersey Jump” was invented.
It’s the asshole tactic that when the light turns green you gas it as hard as possible and jump the left before oncoming traffic flies into you.
It’s as awful as it is hilarious to watch.
I’ve heard that called a Jersey Left. It’s actually pretty reasonable in Wisconsin when they take 5 seconds to start going when the light turns green.
I’ve also heard the Jersey Exit, when somebody crosses three lanes on the freeway to take their exit with no blinker.

Jersey slide for the Jersey exit. Love the regional dialects.
