Having said that, I would kill to have that same level of "bad" here in Panama. This has to be one of the worst on the planet. The weird thing is, no one is ever in a hurry until they get in a car. There is a saying here- There are two kinds of cars, those that have been in an accident and those that will be.

We just got home from Costa Rica and I made the same comment about Tico drivers - super laid back culture, things happen when they happen - EXCEPT behind the wheel and then they're speed demons with zero regard for anyone else on the road. So much illegal passing, no lights on at night, no signal lights, etc. It was crazy driving there.
