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

    I interpreted that as Birmingham is filled with drunken redneck idiots

      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. But what made it confusing is half the audience is thinking the town of Birmingham in Alabama.
