Whoa, that was scary! Seemed to be quite 'polite' tho - wonder if it would have seemed different with the real street noise behind it, how many horns would be blaring and tyres screeching?

Wouldn't want to live there as a pedestrian or a cyclist, I suppose if you grow up with it then you are used to it all.

timelapse does distort things. methinks, but it is likely a traffic camera that took the footage.

I've seen videos like this before. When you think how many accidents occur at roundabouts and traffic lights, it makes you wonder if we'd be better off without them. :-S :-)

do you think that our planners might learn something from this??




Looks too modern for Ethiopia! Where are the donkeys, carts, camels etc???


You HAVE GOT to watch THIS video! I laughed and laughed!!

Frenetic traffic & no accidents!


Jump Start your day!

And with an added thrill, watch the pedestrians and bicyclists.
