I remember the traffic in Cairo (1970s).
replyIt was absolute chaos. They had "half-cars" driving around (front-wheel-drive cars, with the back end missing, and replaced with a rickety wooden cart; sometimes, just like a drag cart, with no wheels).
I'm curious about those half cars. So they start with a perfectly good car and cut off the back? Is that to carry more cargo or something?
replyLikely just got fwd cars cheap from being asspacked and totalled or rusting out bodies and shock mounts that arent worth fixing properly.
replyI suspect the frame rotted.
replyI was just a kid, so point of view was limited.
Not much snow in any of these, or occluded vision. Which drivers seem to struggle with, a lot.
replyJust traffic conflicts to the Nth power and bad/unmarked infrastructure.
