Absolutely love the traffic system over here - or to be more accurate, what appears to be the lack of a system. The roads have: cars, motorbikes, bicycles, trucks, buses, donkey driven carts and pedestrians (even seen 2 camels). There are lanes painted on the roads but these are ignored, as is the idea of staying on the left hand side of the road! Vehicles wind through each other on any side of the road going in any direction. Have seen 5 people on one motorbike and was told that you can squeeze up to 7!!! Everything is chaotic but works, admidst lots of horn honking - everyone is so relaxed that their attitude is contagious.
