Oh gosh... those damn cabs in Jakarta!! Do they actually have their driver's licenses?? They drive like the road is theirs! What bugs me is that they have the attitude of "who gives if my taxi gets scratched" cos they don't love their vehicles the way I do (my car even has a name: Red Bitch). So when I'm like head to head with one of those cabs to get into a little space on the road, 90% of the time I lose cos I don't want Red Bitch to get damaged. All I can do is just honk and honk like an old women havin a fit. At least that makes me smile.
People... just honk.

waaaaa... is there such a thing as unswanky or should that be non-swanky? This blog might turn into that with so few posts! just keep writing ... just keep writing.
True, true, sorry for the tardies and tx for the reminder. We will add more stuffs. And we will also move our testi to this blog to better manage the feedback for our readers.
Now, not only Taxis that drive us crazy, but also busway construction, other unresponsible motorists, noisy motorcycle and much more. As somebody already said, I believe the Jakarta Post, that if no improvement will be made to the traffic in Jakarta, in 2010, none of us will be able to commute, the prediction will be dead right. Imagine, how much money and energy have we lost because of this.
Early in the morning, I saw a baby waking up drinking milk at the porch of his or her house, close to the streets where cars and motorcycle jammed in traffic puffing smoke. I believe I have seen this nanny and baby doing the morning rituals several time everytime I pass the road.... gk
Not only taxi, the whole traffic condition drives me nuts if I don't implement my Zen driving attitude. What the heck is the 5 0 doing. They don't have any plan at all to make it better...
tx for the comment but please be swanky enough to put your id :-)
