Selfish selfish!

I had a great time laughing about the two drivers ahead of me in the Qwanlin Mall parking lot. Both wanted to back out; neither was going to give way. So they could have been elegant and backed out in a way that suited both of them. But buddy in the big van in front was having none of that. Either because he couldn't drive his oversize vehicle or just because he was "the only driver in the Yukon" he pulled directly into the person trying to back out. Chaos ensued and I choked with laughter. Better than crying, right??!?

I think I should use this for the bad parkers....

Next time I get ticked off with parking I should use this note! Especially useful at Walmart in the summer, eh?

Cruise on Rotterdam 2009/2010 over the holidays

Here's a slideshow of our great trip!

Winter driving in Whitehorse....

Happy new year. May 2010 bring you safety, security, and happiness! I will continue posting occasional rants about driving as I've seen it.

There was a lot of fresh snow on the roads and so driving was a lot trickier than usual. Nonetheless, here are some more driving episodes for you!

In a two lane road, a driver ahead of me tries to pass on the right and doesn't see that there's a car in front in the right lane so immediately veers back left.

After driver sees me, a lumbering truck pulls in front, cuts in front, and then slows down. Without evasive action I would have been riding in his flatbed.

I saw 4 pedestrians walking in the middle of the road, ostensibly so they didn't have to inconvenience themselves by walking in fresh now. But with slippery conditions and drivers going too fast, is this smart?

Again, one common thread....everyone thinks they're the only one on the road because after all, it's little ol' Yukon.

Wake up people!! And watch for others, and play nice!
