If you live in a small town, you know it's nothing like the city to drive in. In fact, the idea of driving in the city probably terrifies you.
1. If someone is honking their horn at you, it's probably because they're saying hello. In a large city such as New York City, all you hear as you roam the streets is many different car horns sounding angrily at once. We use our horns here mostly to say hello.
2. The most "traffic" you'll have comes from being stuck a few cars behind a school bus, after a Friday night football game, or when your town gets a new fast food restaurant. We might think that there is "traffic" backed up through the street, when really it is probably a mere five cars! But hey, any type of road block is foreign to us.
3. You rarely use your turn signals. Why? Because most of the time you won't have a car right behind you, and there are only so many places to go so people are aware of usual turns.
4. You have more one way streets than anything. To a visitor or an outsider, it makes no sense. In fact, you will know instantly when a driver is from out of town because of the way they handle the one way streets... With caution and confusion!
5. "Rush hour" on the weekends consist of early morning breakfast crews at the local diners or church-goers. 
6. You always are cautious of pedestrians, and you might even stop to let them cross. This is the biggest difference in driving habits from a city to small towns. The drivers are much more generous to those on foot in a small town than a city. In a city, you better hope you're quick or luck is on your side, because otherwise you're getting run over! 
7. "Back road driving" is really a thing. There is no better way to blow off steam than jumping in your car, putting the window down, turning on your favorite song, and driving until your heart is content.
