NFR: Hump Day Fun

.. and there you were negotiating the Magic Roundabout in the West Country, thinking to yourself "what a great deed of planning this was", or driving in Central London thinking "this is madness"

How about driving in Addis Ababa, just watch this ...... and after you have watched it the first time looking for cars coliding, watch it a second time and look at the pedestrians!!  St George never had this problem!!!!

Looks like the "Traffic racer" app !

Actually reminds me of Jakarta in the 1980's

I'm sorry, but this has nothing on Brixton High Street.

Yeah, but Brixton High Street HAS lights, people just ignore them, but in this place, there's no lights.

Someone in the office surmised that its safer without lights, as there's no sense of safety thus complacency attached.

Funny thing is, that in places like Ethiopia and India, you never see road rage. I liken it to the way people walk in crowds and only rarely bump into each other. It looks chaotic, but there's much more give and take on those roads than in U.K. or Australia, where even a minor indiscretion results in an almost murderous response.

Looks like Five Ways in Birmingham at 8.15am this morning.
