    When I worked in parts of Africa like that I paid drivers to slow down several times. NO DIE! NO DIE! While handing them cash. Other passengers always give me big thank you looks, like I'd negotiated with a hostage taker. Never made much difference but they were a little safer.

    The yellow tshirt driver is an idiot. All of the passengers were complaining. Got into accident myself, as a passenger, due a speeding driver like this. And the stories that you would hear from properly driving drivers when sitting next to them.

    ,, Winter. Germany - autoban highway. Bad visibility. Micro-bus flies through us on 140km~. We keep driving, thought to myself, - crazy son of a bitch.
    20 mins later, traffic jam. When we cross accident area, same bus, all passengers torn apart, still warm remains, limbs and bones with flesh on road producing ,, fog '' in cold winter air. ''
