Having just flown back from the FPV open day, which was lots of fun, I have determined that Melbourne is the home for some of the worst drivers in the world.
U turns in the middle of traffic, high speed lane changes without any indication or awareness of other vehicles, pull out from parks with no regard to oncoming traffic, stopping in the middle of the road for no reason, failure to understand what the STOP in the middle of the big red octagonal sign means, failure to give way..... It goes on and on.... I have driven in all Australian cities and even in such crazy places as LA, Montreal, Toronto, New Orleans (and about 20 or 30 other US cities), HongKong, most of NZ, Tahiti and melbourne wins hands down. Now I understand why Bracks has more speed, I mean safety, cameras than traffic lights. You are all maniacs........ Last edited by flappist; 28-02-2005 at 02:43 PM. |
