  • The driving here is crazy! Even worse than Malta.

    The lane markings tend to mean nothing and the roads largely appear to be a free for all!

    Taxi drivers are particulary crazy, I couldn't watch when I was in the back and needed a stiff drink when I got out!

  • Mopeds are EVERYWHERE in Rome. Watch out for them, even when down the quietest of streets because they come zooming around and assume right of way.
