I have a driver's license in China, but I don't think I would drive there, at least not in the city. People drive so close to each other and make PDC seems like a crazy idea, and none of those cars have PDC.

Anyways you should come to HK and see. Is a totally different driving environment, crazy too but people still know a little about traffic laws.

We drive much more better than the drivers' in China. They drive in the opposite lane even though there are oncoming traffic coming, make a U-turn in the busiest street in the city/highway, drive into the highway from a partly finshied ramp..........etc

HK people driving behavior is better except for taxi driver, bus driver, minibus driver, van drivers, truck drivers........

Actually bus driver from KMB generally drives better than driver from Citybus or NWFB. Those bus driver from the Hong Kong side are crazy.

Big trucks are polite because of their size, is those 5.5 ton and Chicken truck I hate the most.

I hate all truck drivers! One truck driver ruined it all for everyone. I have no respect for them.

to make it short. slow merge onto another freeway. 2 lanes into 1. I was head to head with him the whole time and when we reached the merge he kept pusing me to the shoulder!!!! expecting me to stop in the middle of the lane and let his F-ing 18 wheels past first! SO yes he ran 3/4 of my car off into the shoulder and i was like 1 foot before I was going to hit the side of the curb. I honked he didnt care and then when i did get into the lane he high beams me and kept it on in my face! THAT Mother F-er I hope he has ran off the road and died already.

Only one bad trucker will do it, is like the thing with MB, one bad driver and I think all of them drive bad and buy the car to show off..... Well actually from all these years of observation, I am 99.9% correct thus I choose E60 over E anything from MB.

Ah trucks do no good... cause traffic jams, traffic accidents, slows me down, ruins the road, pollutes the air, burn too much gas... see no good.

And ALL they do is deliver goods.


Too many minuses for one positive. HAHAHAH

Ok guys

Is this the place for our BBQ meet on the 4th? I went there this morning just to scout things out. It's rather nice. Let me know if this isn't the place.

Cheers

Oops...that's not the place. The one we are going is closer to Ma On Shan than Sai Kung. If you go from Ma On Shan, after you pass the Ma On Shan KCR Wu Kai Sha Station, you will see a sign pointing you to the BBQ place.

So, what time are we going to meet? Or just like last time, we meet somewhere in Kowloon and drive in together. How many do we have in total now? I saw GF366 on MSN sometime ago and seems like he is ok on the 4th.

Input please.
