> The rules mean nothing, everyone drives freestyle. In towns and cities, it works extremely well because everyone is very attentive and ready for anyone else to do anything, at any time. There's some truth to that, but there's also the ugly reality: statistically those places tend to have extremely high death rates (which may or may not come with high accident rates). Because while people are definitely more aware and cautious on the road in general, nobody will ever take the extremely dangerous drivers off the road, and they're now emboldened by the lack of consequences (both from the law and from drivers who mostly willingly give up their right of way to whomever is most reckless). I know someone whose entire family was killed by a driver who hit them head on due to blindly passing a truck while going 160kph on a 40kph road in Honduras. I know for a fact that his wife was an extremely cautious driver, but you can't avoid something like that no matter how hard you try to predict the unpredictable.
