We were speeding at 110 k on the way to school today in a Matiz. Something strange was on the road and I yelled at my co-teacher to stop. She doesn't stop but swerves around an old man cruising down the highway on his electric cart thing. He was in the fast lane going in the wrong direction down the highway. Most cars do about 130 k's down this road. One of the most unusual sights I have ever seen.

Yeah I've seen that before too. I've seen an old man driving his cart on the street with actual cars. I've seen dudes ride their bikes on the street as well. I'm not talking about bikes next to the side walk, but in the middle of the street with cars. I wonder if these people have a death wish.

He's older than you, so you have to show him the proper respect by swerving around him humbly at 130kph!

Lots of old people here are penniless and close to death. The idea is to get killed on the roads and then your family will at least get some money.
Better to die and achieve something than die and achieve nothing.
Old people in Korea who die from natural causes are really selfish.
Be charitable don't swerve around them, hit them head on, you are doing the family a favor, and your insurance company will pick up the tab.

They're only worth 50 points.
