Saigon is a motorcycle heaven, there are more motorcycles than other vehicles per square kilometer of the area than in most countries and they motorcycle drivers here, both men and women, young and old, are daredevils in driving such that they swing from left to right in any direction when in the roads that is why they have a large number of motorcycle accidents in Vietnam per year, and you as a tourist must always be careful in crossing any street, particularly the large boulevards and streets and these motorcycles criss cross left and right hence always use both of your eyes when crossing the streets here as to avoid being run over by a wayward motorcycle.
