Look at that road and imagine 20 years ago it was nothing but bicycles. Not anymore and I can't say I fell sorry for them. Cars will just be another form of population control for them. However, I watched the movie and didn't think the driver, who changed lanes in front of another car, was the worst that I had ever seen at the last second. Yet what the driver did to the woman when he stopped her, pulled her out of the car to beat the crap out of her was something. The flip side is I don't think he is any better when it comes to the same thing except in this case he was bigger.

Many in Asia, say China, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines drive as though they are the only car in the world with nary a look at what is around them. The only thing the Philippines has going for them is that the people are so patient with this type of driving and never get upset. With over 50 trips to the Philippines I have seen it all and been in countless cars with only once driving an SUV. Pays to let a native do it. Incredibly there are few accidents there between Filipinos during the day light hours. Probably the typical 15 mph speed traffic crawls at. When there is a crash it is usually a foreigner and a native because the foreigner doesn't think like a native.
