That place has a chaotic feel to it. I like very much how everyone was driving scooters and motorcycles. |

If you've never seen what traffic is like in Saigon Vietnam then you are in for a shock. I've been to Saigon once and it is absolute madness when it comes to driving and navigating through the immense traffic. It's like taking away all stop lights and traffic signals from LA traffic and letting them do whatever they want to do. Enjoy |

Surrender your flesh. We demand it.
Yeah, that it is. Crossing the street is damn near virtually impossible. lol. |
|
Yeah, that's how it's in Lahore and all. Damn crazy. NY traffic itself is just slooooow. |
|
I guess that I've never really been in a place with severe traffic. Around here if a tumbleweed blows across the road, everybody knows about it. |

It was pretty bad in Bangkok too. |

Yah, LA traffic actually isn't horrible. Some days its annoying, but you still always get to where you need to be... |
|
I remember I was afraid to cross the road when I went to Saigon (the very heart of it). Took me like 2 minutes to get to the other side lol. Had to take tiny steps and shuffle across the road and let the vehicles dodge me. xD Traffic lights and zebra crossings meant jack sh*t. |
|
Yeah, that's another place I need to visit. I can only imagine the traffic being pretty much the same as in Vietnam. |
|
I guess you have to be like the people in the video and just walk out as if the traffic isn't there and they will stop and move. |
|
Scooters seem like a pretty logical step to take. If there were as many scooter riders in London or NY, there wouldn't be such horrible bumper to bumper traffic. I like it! |
|
Living in Bangkok actually made me much quicker and more dexterous at crossing the street. It's seriously like a skill you have to learn or else you'll get run over or just never get across...but it's actually quite fun at the same time. You eventually become a pseudo street ninja that can dart through any sort of traffic at the speed of light. |
|
Hehehe |
|
^ Pretty much the same in Pakiland. |
|
I wonder how frequent traffic accidents are in Bangkok. I know Vietnam has plenty amongst motorbikes and pedestrians. I would think Bangkok may be pretty similiar. Did you see any during your stay Nina? |
