World peace?

We can't even navigate a four way stop without wanting to murder each other in extremely painful ways.....

I drove in Japan for 2 years. Let me tell ya, we had a corner nicknamed Kamakazi Corner. It was a 4 way stop and go only when you had the courage to go. And once you went you didnt stop or if you did you would end up in an accident.

I live in a fairly rural part of Kansas. The city replaced a "four way stop" intersection with a "round-a-bout" style intersection. Us locals got used to it in fairly short order but some out of town folks (farmers) are so confused by it that it has caused traffic jambs. You should see the looks in their eyes! Everything from stark terror and confusion to out right anger that the traffic just seems to keep coming because they stopped.  :D :D
