What The Hell?!?! I Don't Believe!!!

Having a car drive down the wrong way on a single-lane one-way road is something I see quite often when people try to take a short-cut out of the car park near my apartment. Seeing a car drive down the wrong way on a 3-lane carriage-way or highway is something I thought I'd only see in the movies.

Today would be the day that it actually happened and I think the stupid idiot actually thought I was going the wrong way! While the whole road was rather empty except for me and a taxi a distance away, the driver came down the furthest right lane and actually flashed his headlights at me as if I was in the wrong. The bugger must either be drunk (as it's the start of a long weekend), got his license from America or Philippines (or some other country where they drive on the opposite side), or he must be an idiot.

I guess he realised his mistake when he saw the taxi behind me, and the traffic on his left that was overtaking him across the center divider, which was when the signal came on in an attempt to find a way to make a turn. Well good luck buddy. You should have just done a U-turn and gone back up with the flow of traffic, turn to the AYE and turn off at Alexandra.

But I think it would be better if dangers to society like you just went straight, turned into the Queenstown police station and declare yourself unfit to drive.
