Peruvian and Puerto Rican Driving


Peruvian and Puerto Rican Driving

Car and driver have been one since they met. Both of them have been on the road ever since. Everywhere in the world there are drivers who have different ways of driving. Drivers show exotic ways of breaking the laws of physics and the law of the road. Each driver is different no matter where they are, for example like Puerto Rico and Peru both distance and both same driving techniques. Drivers from Peru and Puerto Rican seem very distant, but they show same characteristics and similar behavior on the road. When it comes to driving distance isn’t something that one could contrast.

I have been in Peru and I live in Puerto Rico and I have seen how drivers have no senses at all. Drivers in both places have a tendency in being hostile towards on each other. Drivers lose their sense of morality and humanization when it comes to driving or being on the road. The rules that are supposed to maintain order or stability which they seem to be shattered with no reason whatsoever. There is a saying “rules are meant to be broken” well when it comes to these people rules don’t exist. Nowadays accidents happen because of careless driving and by breaking the laws of the road. These drivers they are like sharks around you. They don’t care about the rules they just care on getting wherever they want to go to. The rush of the drivers seems to be a great cause of their ways of driving. I know I wouldn’t be a great driver; people die on the road for having no sense of following the laws on the road. Rules don’t seem to matter whatsoever to those who are driving. The reason to the accidents that happen on the road is either for people who are young (inexperienced) or people who are in a rush. Rushing is a sign of bad driving; these drivers whom seem to be blind sometimes can see double causing them to see more lanes than normal people see. I have experienced how both drivers, Puerto Rican and Peruvian tend to see eight lanes when I only see 2. Sometime I think who has lost his mind me or the driver, they don’t seem to care what’s on their side but on what’s up front of them. I think no one can be a driver like the Puerto Rican or the Peruvian they are like aliens from another planet with no sense of fear whatsoever. Being in a car with these drivers it will make you believe in God.

Communication is essential to our human nature but drivers since they are not human they have a different ways of language one unknown. Their universal language is like no other it has the power to make you feel like crap in a few seconds. This language is full of emotions like madness and most of the times anger. Here in Puerto Rico, people are careless and they like cursing each other; saying how bad people drive. My opinion is that they all are bad drivers. My question is why do drivers curse at each other? Why can they understand each other cursing? My theory was that’s their language, their sense of understanding. Is this either a way of testing their knowledge of bad driving or a way of testing their patience? Both drivers from Peru and Puerto Rico may have different languages but they all seem to understand themselves when it comes to the point of cursing each other. That’s their universal language for all drivers no matter where they are from or how different they say it but the emotion and the expression they put into it.

Another symptom or defect I found both have is their way of losing the sense of color and blindness. Color blindness is when colors are seen from different way are not the exact color. In the laws of the road that drivers are expected to follow they are suppose to not be color blinded, why? Because in the road there are crossroads in which is important to stop at a certain time. The only way to know when to stop is by this artifact called traffic light. This traffic light which has three colors green which means go and red stop and orange prepare to stop. Drivers don’t seem to care nothing about the lights that represent stop and go. Is either they are color blind or simply they find the lights like it was a Christmas decoration. I have experienced old people who are really blind and they don’t see the light and they pass right through. For drivers who are suppose to know the road rules cant be excluded for such acts of color blindness. I have seen drivers shouting to the light and communicating (cursing) with it. I have seen expression of anger against one little green light who has no purpose but to evade accidents happen. Sometime I wonder, do they know what color is the light? I guess that drivers should be color blind because to simply evading it by no reason demonstrates that they want to get somewhere without stopping. Its like their eyes are on their destination.

Both Peruvian and Puerto Rican are insane drivers with mad skills. I think that those places on the world are the places where nascar drivers go practice. They lack fear, and are always persistent on getting to their destination. I can tell that there are many people not only in Puerto Rico or in Peru but everywhere that break the laws on the road. Puerto Rico and Peru are full of wicked drivers who are color blind, careless of what the law states and where they see the world as a course for practice. There are drivers that may seem from different places but still show the same behavior. In other words, it’s like having the road full of Nascar drivers who are simply going round and round; their goal is their destination. These professional drivers who are not afraid of their consequences and they will meet their destination. The road is for those who lose their sense of sight and aren’t afraid of nothing on the road. No matter where you go, there will always be a driver either Peru or Puerto Rico showing how good driving is supposed to be like. Warning!, be careful of their consequences.
