Didn’t really expect much from DrivingUk but honestly the amount of downvotes shocked me. God forbid people go out at night dressed normally without full on high vis.

Yeah but the direction of your take sucks from an advocacy standpoint. Sure, don’t die. That’s revelatory. But maybe we should be talking more about the 10 lane road with no signals or crossings?
Well, it doesn’t need signals or crossings because people can cross freely (unlike the US), the traffic speed is lower, and drivers know to look for pedestrians, cyclists and scooters … but Vietnam does lack decent public transport.
The flipside is that no part of the older cities is set up for public transport (hell, lots of houses are only accessible on foot or by scooter) and there’s little money for putting in infrastructure that can’t also help move freight - during rush hour that 10 lane road is 7 lanes of trucks and 3 of scooters.
