Re story about "Californian in Mini" causing problems in snow on I-80 . The problem I have is pigeon-holing people according to their current "legal residence".

 Many of us were born & raised in 1 place, college elsewhere, temporarily reside here & there, etc. a person with a CA plate could actually by a Wyoming person who for whatever reason has CA residence, or dual residence, etc. by referring to a person as a Californian or Montanan or whatever, is reductionist for the sake of dumbing us all down & even sometimes harmful prejudice. 

Our modern world is much more complex & intricate than it was decades ago when people who were born somewhere stayed there forever. How about "fellow American" ?
