Jam, Jam, and More Jam

The past few days have been a headache driving around. There were endless traffic jams almost everywhere in town. It must be the pay day and also the near start of Ramadan. But the reality is there are now too many vehicles with too few roads being constructed. Over ten thousands new cars are registered annually in the country.

The past few days also saw a few nasty traffic accidents. Last night we saw one along the Tutong highway which must had happened a few minutes before we passed the scene. There was another one at Tungku Link today at midday causing a huge traffic pile along the road. There was a plea on the radio for those plying on the other side to stop 'rubber necking' as they were also causing traffic jam on their side of the road.
