| | Once I drove an American from the airport straight to a golf club which involved
going down some country roads. At one point he was 100% insistent that I was
going the wrong way down a one-way road because he couldn't believe cars
were coming towards us.
It wasn't even a narrow road just regular country road.
|
I assume this was in the UK? He may simply have been confused by people driving
on the left side of the road. We also have country roads here in America, but
people typically drive on the right when not drunk or passing other vehicles.
| | It was a very funny and memorable journey made even more memorable by him giving
me the biggest tip I was ever given. I think he was either impressed or just
glad he made it in one piece!
|
Most likely he was simply very wealthy if he was flying to Europe to play golf.

|
The biggest highway I've ever driven on is the Dan Ryan Expressway on the
south side of Chicago. It has fourteen lanes, seven in each direction.
According to Wikipedia, it is the busiest road in Illinois. In 2005, an average
of more than 300,000 vehicles traversed a portion of the freeway every day.
The south side of Chicago is prone to gun violence and the Dan Ryan is no exception.
Criminals armed with automatic assault rifles occasionally open fire on the expressway,
killing people in cars.

So what are your thoughts about the second part?

It failed because it was horrible. Not engaging for kids, with nothing in it
for parents.
