The average car driver has gotten a bit better, I’ve only been hit by 1 driver not understanding how big their vehicle was (and 1 driver not hitting the ebrake/engaging the clutch and rolling back into my bike before I could get out of the way). But yeah, even 1 car for every 20 bikes fucks up traffic for everyone, especially when they have to stop to crawl by a parked car or something. I have some hope things will improve as Hanoi bans ICE engines inside the city and other cities take notice.
Even so, I will take riding in the worst HCMC traffic over America’s psychotic, egotistical drivers.
