This video reminds me of my first day ever driving on the freeway--in Washington DC no less. I remember being in the slow lane and the freeway was PACKED bumper to bumper. Next thing I knew, there was a steady stream of cars coming up the on-ramp. (Must have just been let loose from a red light). There was NO WHERE for me to go so I just kept driving in my lane. I figured they HAD to yield...RIGHT???

WRONG!

That line of cars didn't slow down one bit, they just merged. I'll never know how I didn't wreck. But, I did learn how to drive!

That driving reminds me of Peru. There are precious few rules and one rule above all must be obeyed--the first guy to hit the horn has the right-of-way--no joke. Pedestrians have NO right of way, btw.
