Bucko, .. your post on WLPG about traffic...that would explain quite a few things

[Thomas]

I lived and drove in Tehran in the 1970s. That was a trip--managed only one accident (really wasn't my fault--really).

Anyway, no road markings so no lanes, traffic cops were routinely ignored--some were run over, it was a law NOT to turn on your headlights at night in the city, I am positive their local cars did not come with signal lights, either that or that page was torn out of the Iranian driver's manual, and they drove by the credo: the biggest one goes first, which left pedestrians in quite a dangerous situation.

Next--Italy. About as bad as Iran, except they do have road markings--they just don't care about them!

But driving in New Jersey still makes me crazy, or is it that the other drivers seem crazy.
