1. Our system is that we have no system
2. painted lines on the road really serve no purpose. if the 2 lane highway is not suitable for you to make it where you need to be on time, go on ahead and make it a 4 lane highway. actually, 6 and a half lanes might be even better. it'll save time.
3. there are no street signs, so i hope you know where you're going!
4. using your horn is highly encouraged. if you can't remember, don't worry- there are reminders on the back of every "goods carrier" truck.
5. using your headlights at night is not neccessary; turn them on at will.
6. if you need to make a turn two inches before a bus/car/rickshaw/cow is coming head-on, go ahead. they will stop for you (abruptly, but they will).
7. if you really have to urinate, don't wait to stop at the nearest gas station! you can just pull over on the side of the road and do your business. (please face away from the cars- we don't want to be rude).
8. the road is not just for cars. if you are a pedestrian or a cow and you need to take the highway along with the vehicles as a better route to your destination, you are welcome to. the same rule applies to all stray dogs and goats.
9. speaking of goats, if you have a herd of goats you need to take to be slaughtered or somewhere else important, the highway is there for your use as well.
10. most cars don't have seatbelts. hold on!
