Oh, Those Danes

Having been to Denmark, I must say I was impressed with their reality of life...teen pregnancy is virtually non-existent there. Their children grow up informed and aware because they're raised with what's natural. We got together with some Danish friends we knew from the airline industry and I quizzed their teen age daughter on these things. Her maturity astounded me and led me to further believe the Danes must be doing something right....and you have to admit, it's a pretty clever way to keep those speeders in line. The above video was courtesy of Margalit over at What Was I Thinking. See you tomorrow.....

Ha! Un believeable! I'm surprised accident are up from people driving off the road. I almost went off the road myself last night while looking at Christmas lights!

You'd have to pay me a ton of money to take that job.

That was great. I had to bring my husband in to take a look at the uh 'innovation'...

Well....that certainly wasn't the video I was expecting to see - that's for sure. "Looks" like a good idea to me. It will obviously slow traffic to a snail's pace in time.

I'll get here extra early tomorrow for the next traffic lesson. LOL

It's good to see creativity in the pursuit of safety.

A cyclist was killed less than a mile away from my house by a hit-and-run driver this weekend. The driver was a 17-year-old who was later (obviously) caught and charged.

No amount of effort is too much to save lives.

I had a Danish brother-in-law and he would have LOVED that video. I'm afraid that if it were tried here it would end up with more accidents than ever!
What do you think of that silly Alan G...all set to get to your Blog tomorrow AM for the sequel??

I'm so glad this video provided the chuckle I hoped it would. I thought it was a hoot...lol

And Alan...I hate to disappoint you but don't rush here in the morning....no further traffic lessons. However, there will be stimulating, brilliant, words by yours truly. OH? That doesn't compare to the video, huh? (smile)

Why is it that here in this country we are so Anal Retentive that there would be NO WAY this could ever happen without everyone being arrested...! LORD! We are backward in so very many ways it stupifies me!
DENMARK? Well, maybe that is a place I wiuld like to live if I could!

I saw that at Margalit's. Mr. kenju would wreck the car if he ever saw that!

And the Danes tend to be incredibly beautiful too don't they? They would probably cause wrecks here....that is until some redneck girl got out of her Camaro to fight! Oh that would be funny to just see all the crazed reaction in this small town!

fabulous! and funny. all the danish men i've met have been hotties too so i'm rather sad they didn't have any of them out topless too!
that really would be a good plan everywhere. as long as they do both sexes :)

Wow, that's pretty odd but it seems effective, well, apart from the gridlock aspect.
