Dumma nog?

Fann denna text härom dagen:

Getting There By Road: Driving in Russia is best avoided. Roads are poor, petrol stations few and far between and the quality of the fuel is inferior. Accidents caused by bad driving are frequent and the GAI 9 (pronounced ‘Guy-ee’) Traffic Police are notorious for supplementing their salaries by fining foreign drivers for alleged traffic violations. However, with signs hidden, non-existent or in Cyrillic script, it is also easy for visitors to commit a traffic offence. An International Driving Permit and license from the driver’s home country is required. The minimum driving age is 18 years.
Bringing a car from Europe entails making a customs declaration promising to take it out on departure - failure to do so can lead to serious problems. Also required are the vehicle registration documents and proof of valid insurance cover.
Major roads are designated by a letter (such as ‘M’ for motorway) and a corresponding number. Traffic drives on the right, speed limits are 60kph (37mph) in the city, 110kph (68mph) in outlying areas and 120kph (72mph) on highways.
It is illegal to turn left on most main thoroughfares.
The wearing of seatbelts is mandatory. Drink driving is a very serious offence likely to result in a prison sentence. In law, a blood alcohol ratio of 0.04% is permissible, however, in practice, drinking any alcohol and then driving is illegal.

Vad tycker ni är vi dumma nog? =O
