For the time being we share a truck with the office Elders…actually
we have it most of the time, and they use it occasionally. It has a stick shift, which always makes
driving in a strange city and parking in tight spots an adventure. Rick has had to learn how to
drive Guatemala-style. Here are a few
of the new rules he has learned. 1)
Stopping at stop signs is optional. 2)
If you need to stop anywhere you choose, just put on your flashers. 3) Right-of-way belongs to the larger
vehicle. 4) One-way streets are not
always posted. 5) Pedestrians and dogs
have to fend for themselves. 6)
Jay-walking is legal…if you dare.
Beyond that, there are no rules!
