Thank you 1starsong for your visit and nice comments.

Now, if I can just keep up the blog, with all the other things that I have going online, I will be doing well.

Thanks for the visit.

Priceless and humorous too! D"accord!

Point well taken. No we don't all want to be the same any more than being singled out. Thanks for coming by and I appreciate your comments.

Would it not be nice if we could all get on together, agree about things, not have wars, wear the same clothes, sing the same songs, not differ about petty stuff ..... ?

Would it be nice ?

Rather boring - the spice of life - is in the fact that we do differ.

Hand out the labels with glee; wear them proudly, and accept the fact; without these - we may all be one of a kind - and it may be -

All Jerks

Now at least, not all are !

Thanks for the comments. Sure, if a driver comes from another country, which in any US state you will have plenty of those, he brings his driving habits and idiosyncrasies along with him. I do try to give these individuals the consideration, if via a license plate that I can tell where they came from.

No, I don't always remember my trails to and from places and I have had to drive the L.A. freeway systems, which at times can be trying. I do pay attention to my driving, and I do feel people who use other devices while driving need to temporarily get off the road. If I need to phone, or consult a map, I pull over; simple as that. Phones and texting just seems to be a bit much for some people.

When in unfamiliar territory, I do try to orient myself to the area in regards to driving. I am aware some countries have different driving rules, and, you can believe, if I was going to drive in the town I would become familiar or not drive there.

Thanks for stopping by and your comments.

Hi Seabreeze,
Interesting to me that you brought up the problems that you can see. Yes, bad drivers place us all at risk. It's not the person I can see that bothers me. I can get around or stay away from someone doing their hair, texting or picking their nose. It is bad drivers that somehow have survived long enough or have come from somewhere that has a driving pattern they grew familar with but is nothing like where they are now.
A lot of times that can be a new driver, young or old. It can be a driver from out of town finding his or herself in LA or San Fran traffic and just not acclimatized to the speed and multiple on and off ramp stratigies to get from point A to point B. Of course that has never happened to you because wherever you have gone you have been there before, right?
So If I take you "Down Under", put the steering wheel on the other side of the car and make you drive in the opposite lane and then purposefully put you in a round-about you would be perfectly at home? Would I, as an Aussie driver, be forced to wait until you learned the proper speed and were comfortable with this system or can I drive on?
At what point do you and I decide to see other people's peculurarities and just accept them as human nature or dial our cell phones (breaking the law) to report them? I don't have the answers but I know in my driving lifetime I've been very lucky, even blessed, so I don't mind a little forgiveness, here and there for a blue hair that just can't make up her ever -lovin mind if she can go or can't! So she just sits there frozen!
I was born in Southern California and can drive. I lived on Kauai for 25 years. It had one stop light and 80 miles of road that didn't go around the entire island. I've traveled the world and driven in many countries on many surfaces. A bad driver is and they are everywhere. Hopefully it's not your bus driver! Heh, Marlin

Hi Seabreeze,

I couldn't agree with you more. People tend to forget they are driving 1-2 ton of metal.

Great post.

Kind Regards.
