Ramblings from Zambia....

safety on the roads......

After a long saga re the vehicle I eventually set off for Mzuzu mid afternoon and the car took me home which is great! On the way quite a few near misses - a landcruiser decided to overtake a lorry and came straight for me - at least my brakes work! Then I was going up a steep hill (a lot of the drive is steep) and there was a lorry stationary on the other side of the road. A petrol tanker was careering down the road and then came into my lane and was coming straight for me - I literally missed him by an inch! Road traffic accidents here are horrific and I hate driving at night so am really thankful to be home in one piece!

Here you can see the back door of this minibus which was in front of me, is about to fall off!!

Am shattered..............
