The people who have those accidents are usually young tourists who are making the most of the freedom and take it too far.

Also have not been there long enough to understand how a general lack of road rules works.

I am old and very careful at all times there, travel rather slowly, no helmets, never had a problem, but I would not drive in the cities.

Glad to hear you have driven around in Asia and had some adventures.

Adventure is a no go area in this country. Ya got to be wrapped in cotton wool from cradle to grave here.
