Getting Around

They say that the USA has the best roads in the world. It's not necessarily referring to the condition of the road itself, but the traffic. Exactly! Take LA for instance. The cars on the road are like a lot, but it's not that easy to see traffic jams. Every vehicle keeps its turn and a proper high speed, which let the traffic keep going and no one waste a single minute on the road.

    I've got a car here as soon as i came to LA, because i heard that LA is really big and the public transport here is much too inconvenient. I've already have a driving license in my hometown Beijing. So it's kind of easy for me to get a license here as well. I find that there's a huge difference between the rules here and in beijing. I need to look back when i want to make a turn; I need to wait for the passengers before i go , etc. But It didn't take me a long time to get used to them, and on the contrary, i really enjoy driving here.

    If you have ever been to beijing or shanghai recently, you will understand why i'd said so. You don't even need to drive yourself, just be in a car on the road and you can feel the desperation of being a driver there. Sometimes it's like a huge parking lot, and you will be stuck in the traffic jam for definitely an hour or more. No kiding!

    So i sincerely love the road,or let's say the traffic in LA. And the traffic will be the least for me to miss about my hometown
