I am not Alone

I've just picked up the Cilantro magazine and read an article that made reminded me of something I was doing....
"Needless to say, there are other rules and regulations that u should adhere to if u intend to drive here. Let me explain. For instance, you must respect traffic lights. Green means 'go'. Yellow means 'go faster'. Red means 'go faster while waving your hand at other drivers going into the intersection'.
Another thing you ought to respect is the clueless young orange-vested traffic coordinator. Highly skilled city drivers know that this man is an obstacle to be overcome. If you stop at this obstacle, you will get rammed from behind by other highly skilled city drivers"

I especially enjoyed the piece about the microbuses.
"Do not attempt to overtake a microbus. This is an inflammatory action and will promptly get you killed. Microbuses are evil. They corrupt otherwise sane individuals. Once a young man gets the keys to a microbus, it's like he’s got keys to a Ferrari. He will behave this way. Stay behind him or let him pass you. You owe it to your children. You owe it to yourself."

The article was written by Mohammed Ayad in the Cilantro Central Magazine.
