If people in this country would use car seats properly, there would be a significant decrease in injuries and fatalities in children involved in automobile accidents.

Agreed.

Don't see how that was off colored, but as far as driving over there..... YIKES! You're safer standing down range at a gun range. Stop signs are a suggestion only, they drive with those shemags on so they can't see for crap, others drive full nija dress on so they are only looking out a little slit. Speeds on average are around 100 to 105mph, and you will get passed from any direction. Throw on top of that people on ATVs and you are in for a world of fun.

Driving in Dubai is pretty scary - even when a passenger on a bus - but I didn't see one single VW over there at all, and I'd just bought my own, so believe me I was looking. Did see two very old beetles in Uganda, but neither in working condition - the owner of the tile shop pushes them out every day, and back in again at night - proud even of very old not working beetles!

I had to drive to and from the base to our watch station over there. There were plenty of VWs (European version of the Jetta, Toregs (sp?), and NBs, even one acvw trike). Talk about getting your blood going. And the wrecks you would see on the side of the road! WOW! They made crashes here in the states look like nothing, and it's because of the speed they were going when they happened.
