OT: Obey The Rules of the Road...

Unless of course there are no rules, like on this street in India...

I think they should take out all the traffic lights in New York City and try that.

Seems to work just fine- everyone accepts their own level of risk and speed and things seem to flow nicely.

Driving in Paris can be very similar to this. No lane markings at a light, just however many you can fit. When the light turns green you'd think a race just started. And the giant traffic circle around the memorial at the end of the Champs Elysse is a blast. He with the advantageous fender position has the right of way. It's a blast.

I think you have to get rid of: a) lawyers and b) auto insurance companies



...and this would probably work just fine in almost any city.

I drove 2 1/2 ton and 3/4 tactical trucks, through the traffic in Siagon, Vietnam...it was much worse than that video..If you enter a traffic circle the wrong way, you would do a few circles before you could get out...:lol:

You get used to it. I lived in Turkey for over 2 years, and didn't have one accident. The drivers are much crazier in Southeastern Turkey than in this video. They get worse as you approach the Syrian border, near Antakya (Antioch)

hehehe try driving in the middle east...there are no rules....just *suggestions*...and nobody wears a seatbelt...if they don't die in an accident by wearing a seatbelt, then they will are defying the will of Allah, and not go to paradise(that is no joke, I had a Saudi tell me that one.) and nothing like seeing 12 year old kids driving datson pickups.:wacko:



Y'all have a good one
