Even in Iceland… \ud83d\ude42 I have to admit, being from a place where there aren’t really traffic circles, I was a little hesitant myself when I encountered them in Iceland. I could use a good explanation of what the protocol is regarding the inner and outer rings \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

A man lost his mind when a woman unexpectedly cut him off at a traffic circle near the National Gallery last night. He followed her car west on Hringbraut, onto Br\u00e6\u00f0raborgarst\u00edgur, Vesturgata, and stopped his car behind her at a red light at the intersection of \u00c6gisgata and Geirsgata.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

The word kast<\/strong> can mean fit, seizure<\/em>, so I’m taking a guess that taka kast<\/strong> means throw a fit here<\/em>. It was also interesting to learn the phrase for cut someone off<\/em> (in traffic).<\/p>\n

He jumped out of his car and tried to open her door, but she had locked it. He verbally abused her, and when she told him she had called the police, he left the scene, but the woman was badly shaken. It is unknown whether police have located him.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

I used verbally abused<\/em> here, but the literal translation seems to be poured out bowls of his rage<\/em>, and I think sk\u00e1l<\/strong> (bowl) is correct here, but could be wrong.<\/p>\n
