Crazy weather & crazy traffic
I'm sure by saying this, I'll probably be attacked on the street faster than I can say "Eina". Anyways, this is just my simple observation about drivers in South Africa.
On a perfectly fine, sunny day in South Africa, people can drive relatively fine (although we still manage to knock down pedestrian(s), crash into poles or robots, have a few bumper bash incidents).
However, under extreme weather conditions, i.e. rainy, windy or extreme cold temperature. Drivers in South Africa seem to loose their basic ability to drive decently. Not only the rates of the above mentioned "accidents" tend to increase, the traffic condition also tends to deteriorate. Strange enough, if people drive slower in bad weather. How is it that it's still morely likely for them to be in an accident?
