Lost in Yonkers

My dad is an angry driver. You'd never know it by talking to him or knowing him, but the minute he gets behind a wheel he becomes a different person. And, it doesn't take much to tick him off. Naturally, driving in the city is not a pleasurable experience. It's also usually a much longer trek than originally planned, because there are wrong turns, misplaced directions and German pride involved.

Case in point: on numerous occasions, he's been leaving the city via Riverside Drive and ended up in Yonkers. Naturally, this makes the trip back home a tedious journey--considering how Yonkers is in the complete opposite direction from the Long Island.

Every time this has happened, it has been

"the NY Department of Transportation's fault for not posting signs properly."

Yeah, that sounds about right.
