When I traveled in Middle East, one of my favorite past times was standing on a balcony of a hotel and watching the intersection below me. It's like watching fire - very chaotic and no order to it whatsoever. Amazingly no accidents.

That's totally impossible because I read right here on Castanet that Kelowna drivers are the worst and most dangerous drivers on the planet.

haha well can you imagine many of the drivers / posters here trying to negotiate that Ethiopian intersection? Death & destruction.
Your bias suits you.
