I have to put myself through that every couple of months. Maybe while am I there, I should take a video of the drive I get from the Airport in Pudong. This particular driver, is the "best factory driver" everyone likes him because he is so effecient. Well let me tell you he kind of makes me laugh, because he is an idiot, drives like a fool and gets there ahead of time.(whatever that means) Mario Andretti would cringe. How about highway maintenance workers. In North America, we are spoiled, they have crews that using pylons, lighting to control traffic flow, water filled rear protection systems on the work vehicles, not in Shanghai. You coule be driving an 65mph, and have to jam on the brakes, because, there is someone in a green vest decides to stroll into the middle lane and begin sweep duty. Yup, no pylons, no safety zone, just walk out and do your job I can't wait The food is good
