Some of those mopeds have families of 4 or 5 on them! (I spent a few months in India a few years ago - the traffic there is amazing!)

traffic
Reminds me that the organized chaos we experienced with traffic in Vietnam was nothing compared to that.
Nothing like having a family on a moped, a tractor with hay being pulled by a donkey, cyclos & cyclists all on the same road....It's a cool experience!!!

DH told about taking a taxi ride in India once. At night. To "save" battery power, the driver would only switch the lights on now and then, take a peek at road, then switch them off and drive on in the dark.
DH's snapshots from that trip include lots of roadside wrecks.
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

Oh, my! Lesson being that if there are no rules, CLUMP UP, don't just wait for that nonexistent turn!
