Hi all,
due to recent incidents by drunken,in-insured drivers with or without licences killing or seriously injuring mainly foreign tourists and children I think it is time to issue a serious warning for all pedestrians! One link of many possible:

We are not worth much on Maltese roads! The most the potential 'murderers' have to fear is usually a suspended sentence and maybe a small fine. Shooting birds out of season is a more serious offence!
It seems it is always season to try and run over a poor , unsuspecting tourist whether on , or near or not near a pedestrian crossing.
I'm a driver in Malta but I've never,never come across such a disgusting approach to driving as in Malta as compared to any other country in Europe.
I look forward to comments and hope that this warning might save one or the other tourist lives and health.
From my experience it is safer to cross a road in the middle of Cairo than to do the same in Malta.
Cheers and good health to all expats in Malta.
Take care. Egyptian drivers avoid you but Maltese drivers beep their horn and take aim.
