Something Strange

For some reason, as I was walking to various places today, two separate people cut me off, and both of them said "Sorry" to me for it. In English!

The first one was a shriveled, but statuesque, old lady riding a bicycle. The second time was a girl on a motorcycle.

Given that I've lived here almost a year and a half, I've yet to witness anyone ever apologize for cutting anyone else off in the streets. Especially a pedestrian. Especially in English.

ESPECIALLY TWICE IN ONE DAY.
