NFH!! you are so right! "everyone just does what they're SUPPOSED TO DO!!!" I love it!
the first thing i do when go home for vacation is a loooooooong drive.. i enjoy it sooo much, like if i am in heaven as you said...
wallah, i had no one accident for the years of driving in canada.. here is like a hell.. and the main thing, you cannot predict what the next idiot will decide to do next moment all of a sudden!!
