Yeah, I have been listening loud. Ok, I will prove why listening to
loud music while driving is safe. <br>
<br>
1. Pedestrians hear you coming and stay out of your way. <br>
<br>
2. Other cars hear you from far away (if you got open windows) and
stay away. <br>
<br>
3. Animals too.... <br>
<br>
4. And most important, it temporarily fixes minor mechanical
problems: if you hear that funny noise in your engine, just turn up
your music, and the noise goes away. <br>
<br>
Anyways, I have experienced summer, winter, spring and summer these few
weeks. When we went to Jamaica, it was summer. Came back, and
it was 4 inches of snow and winter. Now it's summer again. <br>
<br>
And the coolest thing....when in Jamaica we rented a car, and drove
around the island. Beautiful place, and friendly people.
Driving is a little different (now, Aussie and English workers don't
laugh) and I did good, stayed in all the correct lanes, and followed the
right direction (on the left) - NO PROBLEM. The car was
5-speed, and even though the shifter was on the left, and the shifting
pattern was different, thank God they left those pedals alone! <br>
