Transport v1

There are these vans over here that creep me out. They are obviously prisoner transport vans and I seem to see them quite often.

It was quite strange to be standing at the bus stop the other day and all of a sudden have these teenage boys standing near me start screaming, gesturing and carrying on like absolute pork chops. I couldn't tell you what they were saying. I can't understand most teenagers over here.

It was then that I realised that they were just responding to the absolute racket coming out of this prisoner transport van that was stuck in traffic in front of us. Obviously one/some of the people inside the van recognised these boys at the bus stop. They were banging on the inside of the truck so hard it was like you could see the shape of their fists through the metal.

It turns out that I see those vans regularly because we live near a prison. Which I never knew. I seem to forget sometimes what a densely populated country we live in and that prisons aren't necessarily in the wop wops like they are back in Australia.

One of those vans ran over and killed a woman today.
