Crazy but the Chaos looks organized somehow....Amazing.
It appears like no-one had Road Rage either!

My father, now deceased, told me about such traffic when he was stationed in Saigon back in the early 70's. I would have to assume that the population has moved over to more 4-stroke machines as time has passed, since Dad also commented on how blue the air at street level was.
There is no such thing as a bad motorcycle.

The US will never look like that. We have too much of a "me, me, me" mentaility to be able to ride in such an organized chaos without a single accident. That was incredible.

I bet they were Buddhists. Buddhists are not down with road rage or getting angry in general. Nice way to live.
