Re: I am sure I've seen something like this in Boston, Mass

i think Boston MA is one of the hardest cities to drive in; many narrow, one way streets, with no clear way to back track, since the streets all run at different angle and were laid out by following a the path taken by a drunk cow. and then there are the Boston drives to contend with... easily as aggressive as NY drivers and as bad at driving as NJ drivers!

Salt Lake City has the reputation for being the easest city in US to drive in, when Joseph Smith (or was in Brigham Young?--not to sure of Utah/Morman history) laid the city out, all the streets were made wide enough for a horse and wagon to make a U turn. (or in modern terms, about 2 lanes in each direction, and room for parking on both sides of the street!)
