I’ve previously mentioned how poorly the Senegalese drive, and here’s a prime example of the hazards of the roads. Who knows how this car got so smashed up – but considering how often people cut each other off, don’t look before turning, fly around curves and speed past each other in the tightest possible squeezes, it’s not surprising to see a vehicle (and possibly its owner) that didn’t make it through the Dakar driving experience.

She will reside in Dakar until summer 2013, when she and her family will move to another foreign post as part of her husband’s career with the U.S. government. In addition to West Africa, she has traveled to France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Italy and Costa Rica and plans to continually add to that list.
