Consider yourself lucky we don't charge you for the free advanced driving course because everyone who survives Cyprus feels a lot more confident back home afterwards...
you all keep complaining but u should see how they drive in France... u gotta be brave with strong nerves.
Anyway, sure..in Cyprus driving behavior sux, but in Russia for example as i seen on TV, cars take pedestrian paths to cut short in traffic jams... so many hit n runs etc... so, get used to it, is not that bad.
Lane discipline and round about driving is a pet hate of mine here. However, Beirut is by far one the scariest places to drive. 3 lane highway....forget it the locals make it 5. Miss your turning on the highway, no problem. Turn round and drive towards the oncoming traffic until you get back to your turning.
See a red number plate... lets have some fun... overtake him on the corner... pul out in front of him,,,, honk at him... brake hard in front of him .... luverly stuff.
