- j1elo 6y agoAdd to that a wooden box with a small metal bars through which I could glance a couple of chickens that were being transported by the family, in Vietnam. Amazing. The rate of children deaths or severe injuries caused by motorbike accidents must have been over the roof in these countries.
- bobbylarrybobby 6y agoMust have been? Large parts of Southeast Asia still get around with the whole family on one motorbike today. Not so much in the large cities but once you get outside them, absolutely.
- bobthepanda 6y agoThe road deaths are also very large in those countries (though a fair amount of that is also people going high speeds on roads that would not be rated for that speed in a developed country)
