Yeah, Victorian London was like that, anything and everything had a classy flourish to it...The Bus is from the 50's they were called Trolley Buses and ran like your Trams an overhead pole connected to electric cables overhead, they were great and I still just remember getting off outside Glasgow Hospital ( Scotland) to have and op on my throat as a wee lad...Β

I've never lived in a town with public transportation. It was really quite novel when i visited a few places with it

In London there is no need for a car as we have the underground railway and excellent bus services, plus the Traffic was registered at going only 5 mph any way and you have to pay a tax to enter in a CarΒ

Oh wow! And everyone just gets around like that? Here, i didnt have my first bus ride til i was in my 20's! Everyone has between 2 and 3 cars per family. (I plan on getting rid of my car if i move and walking to work.)Β

Yep sure is but people still have more than one car per family like you have but a lot of them do a park and ride scheme where you park out side the city and get a free bus into the City or a very low fixed fare.

Oh, that makes sense. That way you dont clog up the streets or risk getting in an accident. Theres a main way here that is notorious for pile up accidents...its like winning the lottery to get through without incident. The put up a helicopter over that road, every day around rush hour, just to announce the accidents. Β

London's radio stations have choppers up telling you of jams and crashes tooΒ

Its a good system and a good way to try and keep people away until the situation clears Β

Yep they now copy your news choppers and report live and basicly get in the way of the Police, idiots.Β

In our area in particular, we are know for fouling things up when police get involved. Like, if someone gets pulled over for speeding, there will be a huge traffic jam from i, because everyone will slow way down and stare at the proceedings as if they've never seen a cop before... rubber neckers

Yep we get that On the motorways or interstates to you, if there is an accident on the other side this side will be blocked up by rubberneckers, assholes.

My mom is terrible. She will actually drive out of her way down a different road if she sees lightsΒ Β

I will admit i only did that once, and it was because i didnt see lights, but i saw a big fire. A house caught fire near where i live and where i was i didnt see lights, as i got closer i saw people were there and turned around so i wasnt in the way

I saw a dog get hit by a Truck and turned around and stopped to help, it was a German Shepard and he had gone under the rear wheels, he died on my lap before the Police could get there. The owner phoned me later that night in tears and thanked me for being with him in his last hours on the planet, a jealous neighbour had let it out..Β

I try to avoid Animals but if my or others safety is affected there's no choice really.

Yeah, there was a family killed a few years ago trying to avoid a pheasant in the road -_-

Yeah, that's just crazy

its a knee-jerk reaction i suppose. Some people try to do what they can, and they may have not been paying full attention to begin with.. Like a little bit ago when i helped out that mom and her little boy who were in a single car - verses- light pole crash. She couldn't have been paying attention to have hit a light pole at speed in a parking lot :/Β

Everyone was okay, thankfully, but yeah...this is why i dont text while driving

Good idea and it's illegal overhere

its illegal regionally around here. Some states only have age requirements on it, while highly discouraging the action. Β Β
