On the side streets and in town, I would rather have American drivers. Italian driving is a case of the bigger or more expensive vehicle wins, or if you look at them you give them the right of way

Overall, I appreciate my time spent abroad and learned alot from it,,, like to expect a**holes to cut in front of me, or move into my lane because of distractions.

The video was great by the way.

Apparently you did not learn the way of the Europeans well, my young Zedi, fore you should expect the unexpected at every turn. You should know by now that the soccer mom and the uber elite Honda is out to destroy you

A rather amusing cartoon that explains alot about Italians:

The WORST driving I have ever seen was in Rome...this is including Kuwait, Iraq! The video was great too.
