Drivers in Aleppo

Aleppian drivers are the most dangerous in Syria. There is so much congestion in the main city and there is literally only a few inches of space between all the cars due to so much overcrowding. Another problem here is that the cars also move at high speeds and sometimes cars overtake eachother and move in and out of spaces found swiftly and this leaves a very good chance of an accident. The only positive thing about this is that Aleppian drivers have therefore become very skillful! There are also many cases of cars scraping past eachother due to the tiny spaces between the cars as stated above and the drivers' arrogance.There are also quite a few accidents obviously and they lead to many drivers getting out of their cars and fighting when there is no police around the incident to deal with it.

The drivers themselves absolutely hate this car driving culture and they always complain although most of them all do it!

I call on the all the Aleppian drivers and the government to sort this out by installing and maintaining a road system and more importantly have monitoring equipment like cameras on traffic lights that captures the number plate of any car that runs past a red light and the flourishing speed cameras to sort out the mess of Aleppian drivers speeding which is common and seen by all cars on empty roads. And what the drivers only slow down before a speed camera? Well now that is sorted out with the Average speed cameras that track down the varied speed of cars along the whole road!

Aleppo is a beautiful city spoiled by only ONE thing which is its roads and the Syrians must sort this out as soon as possible. You do see these problems in the large Syrian cities and even in highly developed countries with tough driving laws but obviously it would be rarer and thus you can see the great benefits of these tough laws in countries like the UK which has an awesome driving system.

Like all the larger cities in Syria, Aleppo is famous for the many tooting taxis of the inner city:
