Avila Beach to Los Angeles Nice "relaxed" drive into and around LA today. Yeah right. I have never seen a better argument for banning cars and putting in some decent public transport. I've been pleasantly surprised during this trip at how patient and relaxed US drivers are compared to their British counterparts. It doesn't seem to extend to the cities though and particularly not LA where patience seems to be in short supply - although we did arrive on a Friday afternoon which is always a cause for driving madness. That said, still not at the level of British road rage and to be fair, I suspect that LA works quite well if you get the hang of using the freeways and just dropping off near where you need to be.
Day 12 - L.A. Woe-man
