The other day I was on my way to Bracken City from the Meyersdal side, driving on Hennie Alberts Street.
As I was approaching the four-way stop, the one before Bracken City, I saw a vehicle driving through a yellow traffic light, right in front of another car who wanted to turn left. The next moment the driver who wanted to turn made a U-turn and chased the driver who drove through the yellow light.
It was actually scary because, well, I don’t know what the driver did to the other driver or what he accomplished by chasing him. I obviously did not follow them as this is the kind of action one sees on social media. I never expected to see it in real life in front of me.
It was just a strange thing to see. Both of them broke some road rules, but I don’t think it was necessary for them to take matters into their own hands. Well, I guess this is what the world has come to; it is quite scary.
