Title: Order and Orderliness
Somayeh said: “Father, why are these drivers honking so much? I am getting a headache.”
“They are both honking and disobeying the traffic rules,” the father said.
“It is because everyone wants to reach his destination faster,” said Saeed.
“Incidentally, with this kind of driving, everyone will reach where he wants to go quite later than expected”, said the father.
“You see, children,” said the mother. “All this is due to disorderliness. If the order was observed, everyone would arrive on time and no one would not need to blow the horn.
