I was cruising around on the mountain at about 130km listening to Mr. Ronnie James Dio as loud as the crappy radio will go. I had a new friend with me who yelled "Oye Papi!" when she saw the car. Naturally, I had to be polite and offer a ride. I was thinking how life does not get much better than this.
I then passed a sign that said "PELIGRO!" but paid no attention.
As I turned into the next blind corner the street made a turn that was almost 180 degrees! I slammed the breaks so fast and spun the car almost in a circle. It is a good thing Boxsters stop fast. If I was driving a normal car I would have went splat.
In the U.S. such a corner would have about 20 signs, a couple traffic lights, speed bumps, etc. Here they just stick up a sign the size of a small pizza box.
