I've been to Asia twice, Thailand and Indonesia, and yeah it's pretty nuts how they drive there!! Some people have it coming to them, especially the scooters that just drive into oncoming traffic etc. But the amazing thing is, I didn't see very many accidents at all, it just sort of works because everyone is expecting chaos at all times. Having a bike less than a foot on either side of your car is normal there and *most drivers are adept at watching out for them (the video shows what happens when they don't lol). Personally, I loved driving a bike there it was a ton of fun, but I wouldn't want to do it everyday, especially in rush hour (which I could avoid since I was on vacation).

I enjoyed the video until I saw the dog get hit. fair warning would be great next time... I would like to punch everyone in this video for being stupid.

OP: for posting this w/out a warning. "DOG GETS HIT"

I rather enjoy watching stupid people get what they deserve though.
why the fck would I have to post a warning of dog getting hit? I didn't even bother watching the entire video and some parts I just skipped. Take your PETA passion somewhere else. They eat dogs there in Taiwan.

Thanks

I burst out laughing when the dog got hit and accidentally peed a little in my pants.

Driving in China is freaking scary. I was just amazed by it when I went there in 2006. My Dad and uncle tells me that pedestrian and moped driver deaths is the norm. Those people just doesn't care.

WOW. Do people not care 2 shits when merging? Even the people in scooters think there invincible. Pretty crazy. I probably don't feel bad for anybody there except for maybe the innocent dog running across. Someone should've been watching that kid, too.
When I was in Soul.....

Koreans. Cannot. Drive. You end up driving like them if you stay any appreciable time or so I am told. I just took public transit and paid for the cabs (inexpensive, most of them speak broken English, or can at least read your destination and get you there.
