Now they want us to start controlling traffic. I am on patrol in Pristina with Fernandez and his partner, Daniel Martinez, also from Spain. Fernandez says this and laughs as he points to a busy intersection we are approaching. With no traffic lights, the junction is in chaos. Cars and trucks from four directions try to squeeze through simultaneously.
Drivers scream out their windows.
Somehow the vehicles move through without incident. They have their own way of driving. They know how to handle their own traffic jams. He makes a U-turn and pulls up behind the car. They search two young men sitting inside, then inspect the back.
