      Sure, but this isnt in Alabama judging by the cars driving on the left side of the road and the tesco express…this isnt in the states

          I spent a good chunk of my childhood in Birmingham, Alabama, and I can guarantee you there are no Tesco expresses or left-handed driving.

          Okay, well, there is a little bit of left-handed driving, but it’s generally frowned upon.

          No, Ive never lived in Alabama, but I’ve driven through and can safely say you would never see this on the streets of Birmingham, AL.

          There are enough places people could go and ride in the country, also cops would just shoot them claiming they were putting people at risk…

            Oh, I see the confusion. He was comparing Birmingham, UK, to Alabama for a point of reference for Americans (e.g. Birmingham is to the UK as Alabama is to the US). But what made it confusing is half the audience is thinking the town of Birmingham, Alabama.

              Yeah, it’s mostly “southern hospitality” and a bunch of people saying roll tide there. Everyone knows a place to go mudding/dirt bike riding /ATVs etc if they have the money for it.

              In the U.S. “country” people who have money have access to land they own. Those too poor, can’t afford ATVs to race in the streets nor afford the repercussions.
