I do not know if the term is correct because culture encompasses many meanings but I will refer to only one aspect of this culture of the majority of people living in Medellin, Colombia, specifically the behavior in the streets, is behind wheel of a car, motorcycle, bicycle or a pedestrian.
Before my review I mean I've tried the above aspects of a passer and all I have noticed that I go back and repeat it to set a parameter, most inhabitants of this beautiful city are a respect for their peers or by themselves, seem to have no respect for their congeners.
A car is a male or female drivers do not observe a red light, I jump, but they see a traffic cop in sight (usually there are no or few in this city except to meet a crash), the pedestrian crossings mean nothing to them, a car or motorcycle can occupy these spaces without thinking that this is bounded for people and if you can not find one of these drivers (ras) ring the whistle so loud until the pedestrian pass to the other side.
Build a claim or them fall into error to raise awareness only lead to excessive anger, if you know in this city are still prone to extreme violence as insults and rudeness are not enough for the driver to show his anger, intimidation by various methods is characteristic, and through word or action, I would download against the group with a more aggressive and anti-civic, taxi drivers, or drivers or any other adjective can be applied to these, if not you are lucky not to be a customer of these pass your car for any holes, person or obstacle that crosses them without considering the consequences, for it is intimidation. These are not the only ones I've seen officers who give their bike to their expertise to use it to speed up and test their strength on the streets, the example that these are no more than the low level of education and love for their work.
I continue with the bikers, I know if even they have a deeply rooted collective imagination about driving a motorcycle that is to the assassins, with or without a weapon because they behave the same Thus, accelerating until the noise is unbearable, it seems to have the road on the wrong side is the normal way to take a shortcut, pass without taking into streets consideration to pedestrians and traffic lights are nothing to them, do not know if low self-esteem is linked to this behavior.
The park anywhere, stop where a passenger wants, cross a road on which is not allowed to do is the daily bread of every one of these owners of a major vehicle to a wheel, but the concern is violent behavior, the way that each person reacts to different situation, this only generates more and more retrograde attitudes typical of people without a minimum of consciousness novel, even civic , the mere awareness existence of a person is a pedestrian or another driver, this is added the low esteem that these people have for their city the subject of waste, accumulations of waste material and look at any street for more than the great work of People collecting garbage its residents only stretched his hand to throw that little paper, just let your pet leave your shit on the sidewalk, just let go in the ground there is a paper and do not deign to pick it up.
The pedestrian is not far behind, crossing the road where it is not set, causing a possible accident involving a whole, does not take into account the traffic lights only holds strong to his son by the hand to pass as quickly and the car did not ram and its parsimony with all these contingencies is a mere idiosyncrasy.
To all this I wonder where is the program that implements the governor shaft, which is reflected in other areas of citizens or those programs are only for certain people are not people with advanced degrees or with your financial, but people with a level of reason, knowledge and wisdom with their city and their peers, we must attack the base of the population by that I refer to the individuality and not the bulk of the population.
I do not know where the inhabitants of Medellín boasts of belonging to this beautiful city if all you make are deplorable acts of regression caveman, I think that sometimes some citizens do not deserve such a generous city and teeth that do not perform in anything at all to improve it, but within this behavior exists a small number of people who make small contributions that turn without noticing they are huge to the eyes of visitors like me who does not recognize any city as their own but I try to generate consciousness by making them realize each person in your error but little understood or violent action to bring my writing makes this criticism of the majority of people in Medellin.
People should not settle this, let a lunar throw trash on the street, a blunt conductor does not respect the pedestrian or the worst thing that this does not respect pedestrian street signs or with only let things happen.
