It’s interesting to me that people are more inclined towards risky behavior on Friday.
When I was a motorcycle courier I used to hate and dread Fridays.
Fridays were the busiest day of the week as businesses tried to get cheques out, get stuff to print and generally draw a line under that week’s work and get home early, or at least leave work on time.
But this would put couriers under pressure to deliver stuff before offices closed and this, along with the increase in workload and the increase in traffic as everyone tried to get home, was a dangerous mix.
Almost every crash I had, and every serious crash among my colleagues took place on a Friday evening.
