Many car accidents ~ California
At first glance it appears that everyone here drives so relaxed and slow. At each intersection, people stop and let you go first with a polite smile and a wave of their hand.
That is why it is so surprising to read in the newspaper each day that there have been a number of accidents, some with fatal consequences. On average, I see five accidents.
I am told that road rage is the latest thing but have yet to discover it myself.
Just the other day, this colored guy rammed the backside of my car. When I got out to inspect the possible damage, he came running to me with a grinning apologetic face in order to reassure me that nothing was wrong.
"My foot just slipped off of the brake," he told me as if it had happened before.
Indeed, there was no visible damage incurred and with my speeded up heart beat slowing down, I drove away resisting all urges to participate in this road rage fashion.
