The commute

My commute to work is 75 minutes each way. I spend a lot of time on the highways and in traffic.  There are 1.3 million people in Trinidad and there are about 800,000 (registered) vehicles here. That is a lot of cars in a small place. 
There are speed limits here but they are rarely enforced. It has some downsides. There are some horrendous car wrecks here.  


This one was on the way home last week in 'rush' hour. 


There are public service messages along the roads but they regularly go unheeded.
This sign was 10 metres from the accident site.
