one-way streets

One-way streets were probably first integrated into the road system because of drivers like me. We have no sense of street-name directions, only the position of the sun and superb building recognition skills.

• Missed a turn? No problem, just go around the block.
• Don't know if it's north or south? Every other street is the yellow-bricked one.
• Are you a pedestrian? Even better! You only have to dodge one flow of traffic.

One-way streets, I'm a big fan.
