As it was not only do they make up their own lanes half the time, the motorbikes just glide right between already tightly packed cars. It's damn scary driving in europe in some countries. Heard Portugal is the worse, but never had the pleasure of such a scare! LOL
In the US the one thing we do have is organized roads and interstates for the most part, you would never see the bahaviors I saw there happen here without someone getting a ticket.

Tho, as far as bad driving is concerned, Ive never seen it worse than in Italy. You should see Florence! Not a single car there that wouldnt be bumped or damaged in one way or the other.

It is two lanes, well just make it three because they want to! I was such a wreak after a few blocks I got out and switched sides with my then husband and gave up completely, cant imagine mayhem like that and half of them drunk. NO!!!!!!!!!

Seriously tho, when it comes to drunk driving, we are setting new low standards. Ive heard somewhere (and I quite believe it) that half of all accidents are caused by alcohol. Not something to be proud of, I guess, but there it is.
| | | spapad wrote: | | So your country drunk drives? Do you have the drunken 500 there? Does it have tradition to go with it? Just curious. LOL
