Come to Lima, Peru. OMG! Stop signs and lights are just suggestions as are the lane markers, the horn buttons must wear out due to overuse.

Still not as bad as Saudi drivers, IMHO. That's the only place in the world that I expect people to pass me on the highway on or off ramps. regularly. and you never know which side they're going for either, you just know they're going to end up in front of you.
Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty.

Don, we did get passed on what constitutes an off ramp here, there really are not any highways to speak of. We're talking India style driving. These people are insane!

We were passed in Canada at night on a gravel road with curves, hills, intersections while towing and driving I think 22 Jeeps ! Trying to follow our guide Robin who was driving a 350 Ford towing a 30 foot camper at 50 to 60 mph ! FjR68

Will provide when I'm back, the connection here isn't great.

Wedding tomorrow evening, flying to Cusco on Sunday, then visiting Machu-Pichu Monday.
