This was the easiest “best” for the News to come up with and we didn’t have to travel too far to get the picture, either – about six feet to be precise.

Right outside, on the News’ second-floor balcony on Ackroyd Road, we literally have a bird’s eye view of the dramas that unfold every day in PriceSmart’s parking lot.

Rest assured, there’s never a dull moment, with horns blasting, road rage and pedestrians risking their lives as they run the gauntlet in and out of the supermarket.

With cars reversing blind out of parking spots, cars trying to get into said spots, cars waiting for the same spot, all with human beings crossing the road with their carts laden. Only in Richmond.
