Online this morning South-African newspapers reports of major chaos in road traffic yesterday due to traffic officials being instructed by the traffic department's top management to pull off all vehicles consisting of just one occupant, namely the driver, reportedly to "frustrate" the motorists! The result, of course, was chaos of disastrous porportions. The whole city of Nelspruit came to a standstill. There were accidents and the ambulances couldn't get through. Alle over people were late for word. Ironically, one of the big shots who gave this ridiculous order, was also caught in the traffic jam and he tried to get in touch of the officials in charge to cancel the order, but they didn't answer their phones! To make things worst, at the same time Nelspruit was struck by one of South-Africa's now notorious power failures!
Now, what do you think? Isn't this just the ultima of stupidity?
