Are you thinking I'm going to talk about the friendly environment for pedestrians here in Taiwan? Totally wrong! It's the opposite!
People here are used to make hustle driving,or riding,when they're on scooters. They don't yield to who driving straight.That is,when you drive or ride straight along a road,you have to look out and prepare yourself to brake anytime for someone who wants to make a turn.
I think people who want to make a turn and cross the lane should wait up there,patiently,and make the next move when cars going straight pass and away.
For pedestrians,it's also miserable what they face day by day.
Pedestrians get no respect when walking on crosswalks.They have to shun cars coming from different corners,instead of walking peacefully by cars making a stop before them.
I rush to my office every morning,even when I have much time and don't worry about being late. Driving or riding fast is naturally regareded as a virtue,for not being a barrier for who are in a hurry.But it has turned out to be everyone's in a hurry!For no reason!
I know it's hard to give up keeping your vehicle moving all the time,when you're on road.But at least learn to pay more attention to those who might suffer from your crazy,irresponsible driving habits. For you may be the next victim from others'!
