Driving in Naples

I am currently reading Frances Mayes’ Under The Tuscan Sun and I just ran across a passage that made me laugh out loud.  There is a section near the end of the book (pg. 182 to be exact) where the mayor of Naples is quoted on the topic of driving in that city:

"A green light is a green light, avanti, avanti!

A red light-just a suggestion. 

And yellow? Yellow is for gaiety."

I love it!  🙂
