Much Rage... The Finger

Wow....... I have been given the finger and honked at more times in the last 4.5 months here in Vancouver than I have in my entire driving career...
I didn't think I had digressed in my driving skills THAT much!

Yesterday Marlise and I were driving to Stanley Park... this car drives by with both people leaning way out the window - giving us the finger... today I go sailing through a almost yellow light, I get the finger... I forget to change into the slow lane as I slow down to a crawling pace of 135km/hr and this guy freaks and yes, you guessed it I get the finger.... the list is endless.

In 4.5 months I have seen for sure 8 index fingers intended for ME! Let alone all the dirty looks and honking. I don't think I've even had 5 incidents of finger giving to me in my entire life in driving in Edmonton.


ANDDDDDDDDDDD on a happy note.........

I played squash for the first time in my life tonite... and even got 1 point :)

Toronto: The city where the right lane (ie for slow people) is used as a passing lane.

Edmonton: The city where a lone vehicle on an empty road will stop for a pedestrian waiting to cross.

Vancouver: The city where you get the finger for not driving dangerously fast.

Mexico City: The city where traffic lanes mean absolutely nothing.

The city where
