The Pacfic Northwest is known for its laid back atmosphere, and to a large degree that is a well deserved reputation but this showing by Portland surprises me. Portland is one of the most difficult cities to navigate that I've ever seen. When we have had visitors they have often mention this, and I have a buddy who has traveled extensively throughout China, Africa, and the Middle East - he has even canoed for many miles to remote villages in developing nations back when they weren't yet developing - and even he says that Portland is the most confusing city that he has ever seen. I may not be prone to road rage, but driving in Portland is still a nightmare for me if I don't know exactly where I'm going.
