Driver's training...

I have seen more accidents in my last 3 years here in Botswana than the entire 36 years I lived in the U.S. Maybe these pictures explain why....
Driver's training here is done on any vacant piece of land the instructor found to set his orange cones up!! I'm being totally serious. In the first picture we are driving down one of the busiest roads in town and on the dirt that would be the shoulder of the road, or median area, someone has set out their orange cones and is teaching someone to drive. Most of the areas are about the size of a tennis court! It's crazy. All "learners" those who are learning to drive have to have a large, red, L on the back of their car to alert everyone to the fact that they are a "learner" if you get behind one of them on the road it is extremely painful. They are never going the speed limit or with the flow of traffic. It's a miracle they don't cause more wrecks. Elliott says the L is really for Loser!
