Nice shots; Asians love motorbikes. I used to ride one, but I lost my confidence after a friend died in an accident. Our first family transport in the Philippines was a motorbike, and my dad could fit us all on it when we were little (5 of us plus my mum, haha! ) to see my nan; the road was empty then, with hardly any cars. Road regulations weren't as strict in the 1980s. When I visited the Philippines earlier this year, there were more motorbikes on the road, and we even saw accidents with school kids thrown out of the motorbikes; there are so many pedestrians now, and the road doesn't look safe as it's crowded with cars and pedestrians. 😊💗

That's an interesting thought. What they have in Vietnam appeared at a time when fewer bikes were present on the roads. And now it needs a change, and it is actually happening but slowly... They have drawn zebras on every street in Vietnam as the first step, and, one day, they will start using them... Saying this as an unhappy pedestrian who is totally happy in Thailand. Can't compare it with the Philippines however - never been there.
Thank you!
