[QUOTE="TitanRev, post: 1064407455, member: 10047"] Hi guys, I'm currently in ShangHai I didn't came here for quite some time already but come here this year for business. Talking about driving attitude. I think PRC here is No.1 most crazy country to drive. A lot of WTF moments and Holy Sh*t moment too. Scooter/Electric scooter Here you can any kind of scooters here which in fact some I have no idea what they are and seems like they just take any parts they can find and assemble themselves in the house and drive it on the road. Here anything with wheels and an engine you can find it on the road. There's no sense of direction here sometimes it makes me wonder if I'm driving on the wrong side of the road when you see a bunch of scooters driving the opposite direction on your side (PRC is LHD). Scooters here WILL come out of the road at any direction you can imagine or you can't imagine. Wearing helmet is for sissy only here no ones where a helmet even riding on the main street pack full of big trucks and cars. There are a lot of nice and luxury cars here..A6, Q5, 7series, Cayenne, Golf, Passat, Camrys, Evoque, Escalade...etc...Golf, Camry, Focus, Audi is like Vioses and MyVis in Malaysia...they are every where. Problem is drivers here are nuts. Signalling is a rare thing.
