Brain dead Chinese

I was on my way to get a haircut in a taxi; we were clipping along good. Coming off the freeway, almost to my desired location, major backlog at the exit; we couldn't figure it out; there were two lanes for the exit. After we inched forward, we noticed a black Jetta sitting in the middle of two lanes with right turn signal light on and on the left lane stopped. Thought it was the guy wanted to turn right but no one let him or he wasn't bald enough to "force" himself in as most experience drivers would have done. When we passed him, he was not trying to turn right on the left lane. He stopped in the middle of the road reading a map!!!! Just stopped! With no regards of the standard traffic rules! I thought I have seen everything in Shanghai already; last time was this Fall when a moron 20 years old couple standing in the middle of a lane trying to cross the road (major road dissecting half of Shanghai) and not wanting to wait for the lights to turn green to cross the street. So 3 lanes of heavy traffic had to swirled around them.

Besides these brain dead younger generation, actually, I should not generalized here... I noticed the traffic direction was goofy as well. In the taxi, we were suppose to go straight thru a traffic light but the middle and a left lane were just packed all the way back to the block back. Great, I thought 'I will be late". All of a sudden, my taxi driver did a sharp left turn to the most left lane; it was empty! I thought, that was odd. And he just kept on going straight thru the light! Then, I realized. Someone made a boo boo in setting up the traffic. The most left lane is for straight thru. And other two right lane is for LEFT turn only. Go figure!!!!
