There must be something in the air! Some days traffic is unusually hectic and dangerous, notwithstanding things like payday, etc. Today, only about a block and half, a fat woman darts between two parked cars. An inexperience driver would have hit her. On Bolivar Ave a concho are blocks an entire lane, waiting for passengers. My police whistle is very handy, three short staccatos is enough to clear the worst jams. When I'm wearing my black beret with aviator glasses, I even get expressions like "Perd?name, comando" ( "Sorry, commander").
