What is it with drivers in Sydney these days? In the Good Old Days, young drivers were taught the road rules, but they also learnt about driver courtesy. These days, we have many more regulations, drivers and cars, so perhaps it's unreasonable to complain, but hey, that's what this blog is all about!
So, with that said, I repeat: what is it with drivers in Sydney these days?
- They can't turn on an indicator (or better yet, turn on the wrong indicator) light before making a turn.
- Depending on where you happen to be driving, you have a greater or lesser chance of finding massive concentrations of cretins who apppear unable to deal with the complex driving tasks required of them when two or more lanes of traffic are so unfair as to merge.
- I will not unleash a Davo's Diatrobe on people who park illegally. But, after some recent experiences with blocked lanes in Paddington, I do have a noticeable impulse to drive (then reverse back) over those people who park both contrary to clearly posted parking signs and so as to interfere with free use of the road by other drivers.
I haven't even started, but Life is too short as it is, and you've got the picture already, right?
So how about we do something about it?
Let's, politely of course (otherwise it won' work) teach these people how to behave on our roads. We will all be happier, and some of us will probably live longer too.
