I can tell you about a time I was late for the admission day at SA University. I was really excited, but it was pouring rain that day. On top of that, the city was packed with people. All the examiners who came to the city were minors, so their families wouldn't let them travel alone in a new place. They had to be accompanied by a guardian. This meant a lot of people were out and about, which caused a lot of traffic. That's why I was late.
