People ask me: "Do you miss Canada @onceuponatime?" Well, no. But I do miss my car (and spaces big enough to park it lol. And understandable traffic rules that everyone agrees upon and practices! I am constantly amazed by Greek drivers. As soon as they get in their cars, they are in a huge rush and willing to take massive chances in order to save 2 minutes on their way to go and sit around for three hours drinking coffee :-) Does that make sense to you?

Well, I know when I was in Los Angeles people got really crazy in their driving. I hated to drive so I would walk a lot as I lived in downtown.
Thanks for sharing @onceuponatime

Nice car with great colour @onceuponatime and who would not miss that lovely SUV? and for saving 2 minutes on their way to go and sit around for three hours drinking coffee? How can one risk his life for just a cup of coffee you will end up drinking for good 3hours? It sounds strange to me.

At a wild guess, you live in Greece? I have been there several times and have driven the roads, but its been the islands and not the mainland.
There are countries that I wouldn't dare drive, so I would say its not as bad as those.

That’s Vancouver right? I’ve never been but I have friends that have gone and they’ve told me how amazing it is, the nature especially.
Everything in Greece just seems a lot less policed or strict (my experience is mainly in Crete tho). So driving feels more hectic and a bit of a free for all. The automobile related fatality rate statistic in Greece is very upsetting, unfortunately I know a few people that lost their lives.
The one thing I do like on the highway driving that I don’t notice in the NYC area, is people actually using the left lane for passing and the right lane for driving normal/slow.

Other places may be another way they are driving, maybe in Greece they often drive fast, whereas in others it is driving slowly.

Everyone has their own priorities. Perhaps someone is right, saving time on the road, cutting the way. Unless, of course, it poses a threat to other members of the movement. Everything has a right to be. Depends where you're looking from. And even the car upside down sometimes may seem not a mistake, but a creative solution. It all depends on the position of the viewer.

I face the same problem when in India. It seems like a mad rush all the time there, where as here in Muscat we have clear driving, smooth rules and stringent traffic rules which keeps everything in control. I believe the traffic rules should be very strict for people to feel responsible.
Greece is a beautiful place but sure there are pros and cons of every place.

You know, that reminds me ever so much of growing up in he south of Spain.
Drivers there were much the same. Put a someone behind the wheel and they'd careen down some tiny back road at 120 km/h, honking at trucks, cows and children... and then they'd get to their destination and sit at a table on the local Plaza with their buddies for three hours, drinking wine and eating tapas.
I think maybe driving represented an "inconvenience" in the otherwise deliberate pace of life... so it had to be GOTTEN OUT OF THE WAY, NOW!
