Motor taxi

Published by blogsmith under Bangkok Edit This

Thai people must be very, very resourceful. Because of the traffic condition in Bangkok, motorcycle taxis could be a real blessing when you’re in a hurry. Motorcycles get in front of the line when the traffic light goes red. Unlike cars, they can just easily squeeze in and make their way through even if the roads were too congested. Oh, I love those motorcycle taxis. They were mostly ubuquitous at the entrance of smaller streets. They were near a train station, a school gate, a bus station anywhere you need them ready to transport you right right at the door.

At first I was overwhelmed at the sight of them but later on I came to appreciate their presence although they could be reckless at times and many a road accident were caused by them. Nevertheless, Thais prefer to use them because they are quite cheap.
