...and the show goes on. After 7 years I'm getting better but I still curse at some of these dare devils' who seem to be in a big hurry to get to their graves.

I live near Mai Chi Tho, a very busy road to the south of D2. There's pretty much always a police check point here as it's the main road in/out of the city to the south from Thu Duc and the west.


3 days ago i saw a BMW X5 quickly swerve across the 3 lanes and stop. A kid got out of the driving seat, couldn't have been much older than 12, and his father quickly ran round and jumped into the front seat.


They'd obviously clocked the check point a few 100m's up the road.


I actually gave up my motorbike here and just ride a bicycle now. I really hope that someday driving education becomes a thing and people become aware of the lethal weapon they are sitting in/on.
