You KNOW it didn't save them any time...MommaBeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04452302193049028569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-1162802071344928992006-11-06T00:34:00.000-08:002006-11-06T00:34:00.000-08:00I really hate driving in Jordan...every time I hav...I really hate driving in Jordan...every time I have to drive for longer than 15 minutes, I'm on the verge of a psychotic episode. <BR/><BR/>Road rage is becoming a problem for me: I nearly chased three twats who were sticking so close behind me in traffic and trying to get me to budge. Why? Where did they think they were going to go?<BR/><BR/>God, I hate driving here.Fedaykinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09871249399055858681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-1162119139790850602006-10-29T02:52:00.000-08:002006-10-29T02:52:00.000-08:00Wow, Samer, thanks for the additions.

Where they make 3 ridiculous lanes here, in Cairo it would ahve been 6! I just figure if you're going to go there you have to buy a really crappy, beat up car and just have fun...MommaBeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04452302193049028569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-1162019573224732422006-10-28T00:12:00.000-07:002006-10-28T00:12:00.000-07:00Funny post!

But add to that:<BR/>* Stopping the car in the middle of the street to stair at a car accident.<BR/>* Acting like that no one else is in the street when someone is searching for the place he is looking for.<BR/>* Not moving when the traffic light is green even after 15 seconds.<BR/><BR/>* And much more!<BR/><BR/>Driving here is so massy but to tell you the truth it is much better than other cities like Cairo, Damascus and Beirut. I went to Damascus in a business trip and I was freaking out when I ever get into a cap, it is so crazy there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-1161501829438312502006-10-22T00:23:00.000-07:002006-10-22T00:23:00.000-07:00It's funny, Jano.

You honestly can't tell if the guy who's about to move into your lane ON TOP OF YOU realizes you're there and is just rude or hasn't even looked (see #10). I've used my horn more in the 6 months we've been here than in the previous 19 years of my driving life!MommaBeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04452302193049028569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26662000.post-1161434716185937502006-10-21T05:45:00.000-07:002006-10-21T05:45:00.000-07:00i agree with you 100% even more! driving here sux....i agree with you 100% even more! driving here sux... from drivers side or from streets or everything else.. its crazy here! you just need to drive like them sometimes or be crashed or you would take 1 hour to get to a place that can take 10 minutes.. this is the way it goes here.. when i started driving honking was the last thing i think about but now, i got used to it and i just use it to have fun onthe street :p jk heheAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
