Speed Bumps

They have speed bumps in Cyprus. The roads are very narrow. Cars are parked all over the place, especially sidewalks. But most streets in the old town don't have sidewalks. I think it is time they actually start building garages. I did not see one garage in Cyprus. I saw a few car ports, and some new apartment buildings, have been designed to have ground level parking, but usually not enough. I guess it's something new that every family has a car. My husband's parents NEVER owned a car. His father used a bicycle when they were kids.

Watch out for the speed bumps! Before you drive over one, you will see a sign that says "Humped Crossing." That refers to the speed humps!
