It’s not so different from crossing the street in Manhattan. Substitute scooters for Citibikes. You dash out when there’s space.

Bangkok is not like Manhattan, or Queens, or even Brooklyn- I think the equivalent is to crossing the road in the Bronx?
Conf to Icky: I remember being in a tok-tok (sp?) on say a 8 lane highway- four going North and 4 south (they're metric, right? what is the metric equivalent of N/S? Anyone still talking to Penske?) And the highway is packed- then suddenly the lane going the opposite way was empty: vehicles going the way we're going just take it. now there are 5 going our way and 3 the other way. I wonder if it would flip to 6/2 but didn't see that. that place is crazy- in Singapore people would get whipped for that shit!
