The traffic in Phnom Penh is terrible. On the way to work in the morning at 7 it is building up to real traffic chaos. The motor bikes are everywhere. A lot of riders use them as they would if they were walking – that is ride them anywhere. And not to sound to old but the younger riders really don’t seem to concentrate on anything and need to do it fast. This coupled with the Cambodian approach of “just do it and don’t look and it will be ok noone will see you do it” leads to terrific traffic jams – that everyone is very apologetic about. Road rage doesn’t seem to be a factor here yet.
Like this little hole in the wall restaurant in the photo we need some magic on the roads here everyday.
