Vietnamese drive on the left-right

What we’ve learnt, then, is that the Chinese Vietnamese (thanks John) drive on the left… wait, no, the right…

Okay, so I don’t know. You tell me based on the evidence!

Thanks John

    Oh, and I don’t want to be Mr Pedantic here but…… Saigon is in Vietnam ;)

    Glad you enjoyed!

    Both the Chinese and the Vietnamese drive on the left (that is, the steering wheel of a car is on the left), just as in most of the world except the UK, Thailand, Japan and Australia plus a few others (Hong Kong, New Zealand, etc).

    The street scene in Saigon (aka nowadays as ‘Ho Chi Minh City’) is entirely typical and I have crossed that particular thoroughfare, on foot, many times – all it requires is a little courage! I lived there for a few years, although I mostly rode around in a car driven by a chauffeur. Even more amazing is the centre of town on a Saturday evening when all the young people are out on their scooters, dressed in their best clothes, endlessly circulating around the main streets – it’s all part of the ‘mating ritual’ that you get in places such as Italy and Greece as well; that makes the streets in that video look almost empty if you can believe it!

    Why did nobody get hit?

    To be honest, Tommy, it’s quite beyond me!
