Egyptian Category: How to be cool while driving in Egypt?

Q: I tried many many times to make myself calm down while driving,, but I couldn't. I mean everyone including me are driving like so fast or slowly, and no one is caring about the other driver in the car next to him. I tried to listen to radio slow music in negoom FM but it failed to make me cool down, tried to close all the windows and open the AC and just focus on my way, but also I couldn't calm down. Please help, I want to drive well without getting angry from the cars around me and from the crazy drivers beside me, how???

A: I know people who are Egyptian and get really nervous or angry all the time when driving...especially Haram street or something like that. The nervous people I know nearly smoke a box of ciggarettes before they get out of the car..I even know one person that owns a car but prefers microbuses and the metro and complains about anytime he has to drive. Then there are the people I know that are never sattisfied with staying in the same lane...its physicly impossible for them lol..and eraticly shift lanes just to get a few inches in front of the next guy..lol..and then they get really mad when the lane they switch to slows down more than the first lane...hahaha.. it is all humourous to me....If I were you I would try to see the comedy in it. It is not possible to drive in Cairo and not see an idiot or two on the way...same like New York or Chicago....maybe Allah(swt) wants to make a comedy for us
