Slamming on your brakes for a random fucking merge, and going from 70mph to 0mph in t-minus 5 seconds on a LA freeway.
Person not familiar with merge spots:
OMFG stop stop stop its an LA traffic stop. Holy Sh!t, (crash)
LA driver: He didn't factor in the random fucking merge, and in a LA traffic stop, he rear-ended that hybrid.

Get the LA traffic stopmug. This is very common in Vegas, hence the name. This applies to cities pretty much. Here are the symptoms: 1. Most of the major or important attractions, clubs, restaurants and stores being placed in or near a casino and/or in one area, thus making the rest of the city very boring, 2. Culture, art and local scenes are irrelevant, 3. The city only paying attention to what will attract tourists and not giving a crap about what locals will do, and 4. Only one or two parts of the city will be interesting, with the rest being very dull, boring, and bland.
If you're living in a developing city and it has any of these symptoms, GET THE HELL OUT ASAP!!!!!

Las Vegas Syndrome example 1: Person 1: I want to try a new restaurant. Person 2: Cool, lets go to one of the casinos here.
Example 2: Person 1: I'm new to this town, so here are some things I want to know: Do you know a cool theater where I can find a local rock band? Or some street art? What about the local poetry bars?
Person 2: You've got to be kidding! (then he starts laughing his ass off)
Example 3: Person 1: The clubs and restaurants here are so expensive.
Person 2: They're for tourists, DUH!
Person 1: What's for the locals then?
Person 2: The best restaurants in town I can afford are my grandma's house and Mickey D's.
Example 4: Person 1: Just about all the shit to do here is over in that part of town. There isn't shit to do elsewhere.
Person 2: I know, for real.
Person 1: This city straight up sucks.

Friend: Hey! What's going on?????
La Salle University Student: Not too much. Just going home for the weekend.
Friend: Why would you do that?
La Salle University Student: Because it's La Salle, there's nobody around and nothing to do on campus during the weekends.
