This morning, the roads were still very damp from the rains last night. Traffic was 'loose' this morning, cars had space to cruise a little more. That was before 7am. Right after the 7 o'clock hour, the radio reported some accidents.
People just do not get it.
If the roads are wet, why drive so fast and not give way?
It must cost people a million bucks to allow another road user to overtake or ease into the lane.
There has never been, I repeat, NEVER BEEN a day, when it either is or was raining, when the traffic update does not say "there's been an accident"!
This must be the damnest thing about our drivers - they are selfish and disregard safety. Bikers will be zipping in between cars, who are already trying to prevent other cars from filtering into their lane....then there are the heavy vehicles, who deliberately occupy the centre and overtaking lanes. Our roads are a living hell!
Never mind all this mess - when the drivers decide to cut into a lane, they do not signal. I think that module was probably left out when they were in driving school. After cutting in, they do not raise their hand to apologise, implying that what they did, was acceptable.
Most of the drivers I watch in the mornings are like that. They are clueless about Road Courtesy. I'm glad that I'm not acquainted with any of them! Imagine what they must be like in person - MOBILE HELL!
I think how a person drives tells a whole lot about where he comes from.
Perhaps there is some truth in the saying that 'we, are in, a living hell'.
