Personal Narrative-Vehicular Maze On The Brooklyn Bridge

Regardless what car one owns, once you’re stuck in traffic, not even a luxurious supercar could pass through such misfortune. During such pile-up, a Lamborghini would be going at a whooping speed of 5 miles an hour and at its side, a 1990 Toyota Corolla zooms by at ten miles an hour just to stop a few feet away.
