    Hope he didnt do you any damage luv!

    Have to agree with you tho... the young urbanites seem to have lost the plot on reality and appear to think the whole world revolves around them and EVERYONE else has to watch out for them not the other way around... opps is this turning into a rant??

    Crossing the pedistrain crossing to the bus stop a few mornings ago traffic had stopped in both directions for me when some idiot comes around the corner and chooses to overtake the stopped cars and speeds up through the crossing missing me by a few inches.
    So my vote has to go to the young man with the mullet driving the beat up holden.
    We are all mad.....so why fight it?

    I guess it depends where you live huh?

    The most likely option for South Africa isn't likely.

    Just to be fair though, I'll tell you what it is.

    It's a taxi driver (minibus) which is overfull, the speakers blaring Kwaito music at full blast (if you wanna know what Kwaito is, PM me) and the driver steering, not with a steering wheel, but with vice-grip coz the taxi is stolen.
    Geniuses always comes across as fools

    We have a lot of pedestrian problems. New Yorkers feel an obligation to run the walker back onto the sidewalk from which they dared challenge the lord of the asphalt.

    Cars are crazy making.

    My block has a mercedes suv driven by a yuppie with a cell phone. Oh, well.

    Then there is the humvee driven by the banker in the 3 piece suit.
