Fix your router. It's not your ISP, it's your equipment.

Get FiOS if you don't already have it. ( 5G home (mobile) internet is not the best option when you can get a actual fiber line )

Not true at all. Hoboken has small streets that you can’t speed on, plus some of the drivers will actually stop for you to cross at a crosswalk which is unheard of in JC. And Union City is littered with like 3 speed bumps on every single block, and every stop sign is an all-way stop. The problem in Jersey City is there is nothing stopping people from driving insanely fast.

NYC has widespread red light & speeding cameras, and for a certain class of reckless drivers it’s useless because they will either use fake/obscured plates or simply not pay any of the tickets. Even suspending people’s license doesn’t really work because most people will just drive on the suspended license anyway.

2 weeks ago I was on my scooter driving down Cole's towards Newark Ave and someone ran the stop sign on 4th st and I had to skid and bail and hit the ground hard. The guy stopped got out and said I was fine to get up. Called me a pussy and laughed then drove away. All he cared to say was he didn't hit me. Which is true but he definitely caused me to fall and get hurt . It was the way he acted that really upset me. Totally uncaring.

Not in Downtown, but the egg sandwich at Semicolon cafe is yummy! It’s crowded in the mornings, so I usually go early at 7.30-8 or slightly later at 10. Plenty of tables to sit down and eat too.
