Thai drivers are crazier than you

Dude looking at me as traffic pulls away. Bangkok, Thailand.

Have you ever:
… driven on the shoulder against traffic?
… pulled a u-turn during rush hour on a 6-lane road in the middle of the block?
… been let off a bus two lanes away from the curb in busy traffic?
… taken a left by first crossing into oncoming traffic, then turning the corner into oncoming traffic, then crossing back over onto the correct side of the road?

I saw all these things today. This, along with the Thai’s brazen approach to food-handling, makes me wonder how any Thai people are still alive.

    What’s so strange about that? I drive that way all the time.
