There is an epidemic on Cape Town's roads called 'Fast Lane Fever' & is not restricted to only one make of car.

The first rule of the road in SA is 'Keep Left' - no matter what speed you're driving at.

Most drivers forget this the minute they get their license.

I like my white Toyota, if it is dirty, you can see it from a distance.

And to see women doing make up in cars while on phones while driving is an everyday spotted thing.

I would challenge the know it all cool dude author to drive around Mabopane/Soshanguve for a day...where every taxi is a Toyota, be it a Quantum, Venture, Condor, Siyaya and they're mostly white. Where stopping at stop sign is taking your life into your own hands....

This is not a Cape Town thing only, I remember when we still stayed in Gauteng, if I had to go from Pretoria to Jo'burg in a hurry, the fastest way to get there on the Ben Schoeman was to switch between the middle and left lane all the time. If you try the right lane you get stuck.

I have spent many kilo's driving most of our country's road's in different vehicles.

Urban drivers are the worst there is!! Irrespective of what make it is, or even what colour it is, right hand lane syndrome is there because, " i wanna over take the truck doing 80 km/h that is still 5 km's away from me. SO now i'm sticking it this lane. People forget that they are blocking the flow of traffic and yes sometimes you do get cut off because the other driver is a jerk," but sometimes i will admit to also cutting people off because they are a serious danger to me in that particular situation that can end up in a nasty accident.

I do get really annoyed when people think its you driving slow in the right hand lane and then jump all over your bumper with lights flashing.

I think that the writer had a nasty incident with a white Toyota, but if I should start writing about the incidents with BMW, Audi, Merc, VW, Opel and some other manufacturers it will be a news paper on its own.

I think he should have rather just mentioned the wrong doing of the drivers and leave the car maker and colour out of the picture as the car is not to be blamed but rather the driver.

Also maybe the driver was driving a company car (unmarked) and owns a BMW or other car.

Cars cant drive themselves so leave the name of the car and rather print the name of the driver and his face. But then again newspapers only sell on sensation.

This weekend in Moz it was again apparent when all and everybody sticks to the flow and motion except the TAXI's from GP. They would come with their wild driving style qand endanger the locals who divert off the road to accomadate these idiots.
