The Killers

Cars And People Are a Constant Rushing Honking Blinking Whistling Sirens screaming Tires screeching Horns blaring Tempers flaring Moments of madness Moments of despair Some in aimless wanderings Or spiraling flows in roundabouts Or flashing lights of amber, red and green Trying to stem the flow so other road users can Have - a fair go - to some it’s STOP to others GO Some cry out in despair-and others-in concerning prayer Life it seems is a torturous race -where stress and haste -The killers ©?

You have described why New Jersey and Pennsylvania are the two states in the United States with the highest auto insurance premiums. I hate to drive in either state. Is it any better in Australia? Good write.

thank you for the warning Robert if I should ever go there I know what state to avoid lol- yes we also have madness and mayhem some states worse than others- I think Brisbane from memory and Sydney and Melbourne rate very high there too. Perth is a bit nutty-Adelaide isn't to extreme but bad enough actually come to think of it (I am on holidays elsewhere) Adelaide is getting worse. Oh dear not much left , I shall have to reside in the mountains I think away from the maddening crowds lol,Brenda
