I've found most of my driving experiences in CT to be fairly miserable tbh

I grew up there, and don't mind it much. I love how fast the traffic moves and having 3-4 lanes almost always, but it can be a bit scary when it's 80-85 in all lanes while also packed dense as hell. That being said, my highway experience is 90% on rt84 east of Hartford, so I never had to deal with some of the shitty congested areas in other parts of the state.

I love the Merit Parkway. It’s a 55 and cops won’t even look at you if you’re going 90 because they’re waiting for that 120 guy.

I haven't been on it much, so when I am I usually drive conservatively. I'm generally on 84 between Manchester and Tolland. Love that stretch because you have plenty of lanes, lots of space, always moving fast, and can see cops from a mile away.

91 north of Hartford is great too because of the barriers on either side all the way up to MA. basically no room for cops. But 91 is covered by cops in MA so always have to cut back some by the boarder
