Driving in the Czech Republic

The Czech Republic is a very beautiful country...But they have a special way of driving!
First of all, most of the cars are exceptionally lousy and probably about 10-50 years old! And because of this, most of the cars have difficulties climbing those hills and mountains you're able to find in the country. This causes the cars in the Czech Republic to drive as fast as they're able to all the time - just in case they'll meet a hill or something like that! They even drive insanely fast at the tiny roads in the country-side (there are hills there too, and you don't want to push your car uphill!). The only thing they have loads of respect of is the railway crossings! But this is probably due to the frequently failure of the train signals...
Hope this haven't scared you too much - you really ought to visit this lovely (and cheap) country.
Happy Driving...
