A Rural bus driver died today

He nearly killed 18 others but thankfully he only killed himself. He did injure 13, a few seriously.
His last act in the early morning before losing control was trying to answer his phone. The bus ended up in a tree trunk upside down.
Fools die for want of wisdom.

Two Fridays ago, I was a passenger in a car driving towards Hope Rd on Waterloo Ave. As we approached Devon House I saw cars slowing down to allow two cars to turn into the popular location. Simultaneously I heard a motor bike guy behind us blowing his horn like it was a new Christmas toy. I turned to my brethren and said watch out for the crash.
Jackass on the motorbike believes his horn is a road signal and drove straight into the turning car. My brethren wanted to know how I knew there would be a crash. I have lived in dat neighbourhood fi three decades.
First the good news - jackass was not hurt - bike was bent but there was too much traffic for speed.
I cussed di idiot and told him they should take him off the road because his horn means nothing to anyone. I suggested that he buy a road code book.
Ignorance is anything but bliss.

Traffic is part of the hostile environment, one must navigate in Jamaica, today!

Too much blinking ignorance

My brethren asked me this very interesting loaded question about 22 years ago:

"In a country of 2.5 M people how come yuh hardly see anyone driving with 'L' or learner cards on their cars?"

I don't know what changes the laws regarding learner drivers and driving instructors introduced about 6-7 years ago.

My guess is that People pay for their Licences..,,or as we used to say, buy the licence

This reminds me of an accident I was involved in Jamaica in the 90's . I had just picked up a rental filled the tank ,and drove towards the Caledonia Mall in Mandeville .I indicated to turn right well in advance of turning,but that wasn't enough for a stupid biker who decided to try to overtake me while I was turning. He was lucky not to have sustained any serious injuries.
