On Mondays I catch a taxi in a one-way four lane highway. Obviously I face the oncoming traffic in order to flap a limp hand at any approaching empty taxi that may have air-conditioning.
This morning, one pulled up to the curb which I stepped off. That was when I got mown down from behind by an ojek (motorcycle taxi) trying to squeeze through the gap between the curb and the taxi.
I think the driver was impressed by my command of Indonesian profanities but I'll now have to amend the Indonesian Highway Code I posted here.
Pedestrians
6. Always look both ways twice in a one-way street.
In keeping with my shitty mood, I paid a visit to the Toilet Museum. If, like me, you like a big read in the little room, I recommend taking a laptop with a wifi connection.
