That is the question that a group of driving instructors, State Patrol troopers and volunteers will put to the test this week, according to this article on the P-I's web site.

Personally, I think so. But it probably has more to due with the volume of cars on the roads in Seattle vs. Tacoma, and not necessarily with personal driving talent or disposition. The more cars on the road, the more chance of someone cutting you off.

And only Seattle has the triple-lane-change move required to get to the Mercer exit from 520.

We've been writing a fair amount about cars on the road lately, including Sunday's story on the 10 intersections with the most crashes (not coincidentally, the intersections with the most cars) and a piece a few weeks back about road rage in Pierce County.

As gas prices continue to rise and tempers flare, maybe we should all just take the bus like Andrew.

UPDATE: We've posted our own news story now.

UPDATED UPDATE: And the results are in.
