Roundabout and Legally Driving on Wrong Side

Creativity Challenge 2002 #35

Hello faithful and not so faithful yet still interested readers and users of my weekly Alan's Creativity Challenges.

I just returned from 9 days in England and Scotland to work and have fun. Next weekend I will catch up with my weekly schedule.

Yesterday and the evening before I drove on the wrong side of the road, legally, for the first time. On the A92, A90 and other similar highways it was relatively easy. Driving through the streets of Aberdeen, Dundee, St. Andrews and some villages were not so easy. The roads in Scotland are a tad narrower than the typical American roads I am used to. The left-hand side tires on the van can attest to that too from the many times I rubbed them against the curbs along the way.

The major challenge during the evening on Friday and all day yesterday were driving through the "roundabouts", one and two lane ones. The two lane ones were the most challenging. At the very last one after driving over 200 miles during the day I was almost hit by an impatient driver who chose to pass me in the roundabout on the right side (which is the correct side in Great Britain but still reckless driving in a roundabout) as I was turning into the airport to return the car.

Almost BIG Ooops!

This week challenge yourself to do things differently for awhile each day.

MONDAY
write with the opposite hand off and on during the day

TUESDAY
deliberately use your non-dominant hand to perform simple activities during the day.

WEDNESDAY
reverse your hands on a typewriter to type a page or two

THURSDAY
walk or run backwards for a block, safely of course, while you are exercising

FRIDAY
walk up stairs in a variety of patterns of steps: left first, right first, one step at a time, two steps at a time. one up and one sideways, etc.

Have fun playing with physical paradigms without getting hurt.

Alan
