I’ve mentioned the obvious things: idiotic taxi drivers, aggressive bus driving maniacs, insane motorbike riders, and a general contempt for observing basic traffic laws (lane markings, red lights, parking). But my biggest nightmare is the young children who dart out between parked cars. In the dark. Check out this video clip
I see young kids like this out on the streets well after what would have been my bedtime at that age. And without any adult supervision whatsoever. I only drive when I have to here. I just don’t want to even think about all that is at risk when I do. Slow and steady, that’s how I take it. It’s kinda like driving sober when everyone else is drunk. Extreme defensive driving is a mandatory skill on the streets of Seoul.

You linked to a soft porn site? Have you lost your mind or been too long gone?

I can’t be responsible for the content at Hardy and Tiny’s. Besides, a couple of tasteful nudes does not constitute “soft porn”. Are you becoming a prude, dear?

Soft porn is tasteful nudes dear. Hard porn is the other type of nudes. The link made no sense. I thought you were linking to a story about street hazards or the lack of child care. I didn’t see anything like that unless the naked females on that website are suppose to represent more lack of child care. Though to be fair they looked pretty grown up. So why the link?

I am not sure I would call them tasteful either. Erotica yes but not art except for the one bending over.

John, you just described to a T how I drive on the streets of Phoenix - the people in this area are American psychos. I once heard Don Imus say the people in Phoenix were the meanest he ever met. Now I know what he’s talking about.
Thanks for the link, I hope you enjoyed your visit to my site and will stop by from time to time with a comment. I’ll be happy to link to your blog as well. Best regards!
