- We arrived during TET and we thought ... well, traffic is not so bad after all. We changed our mind quickly after the holiday. In this video you can see some fun traffic moments we were able to capture during our first month in Saigon.

Watch the guy at minute 1:06 in the red shirt crossing the street, will he make it? 🤔
LOL he made it, but you and i wouldn't
@@snakeinthegrass7630 I can handle Beginner Saigon Traffic but what he's dealing with is beyond advanced.
That's JV. Senior Varsity pedestrians handle bigger challenges like the traffic circle at McDonalds and Dien Bien Phu. Or one of the more crowded but smaller streets with 5 feeder streets and people riding on sidewalks.
that's leapfrog advanced right there ..... 🐸
Não é um tráfico louco e sim um tráfico com paciência e sabedoria, eu percebo que o sul é mais organizado, parabéns.
Surprisingly it works and THAT'S the crazy part :)
0:31 someone lost their phone.
OMG, I never noticed - good eyes!
I love and miss this! Makes me want to go back
What did you miss about it.. when was the last time you went?
one crazy city
this video left me wondering about the feasibility on autonomous driving :)
I think it's possible .... still :)
Honestly, I would probably have a panic attack if I had to make a left turn on an intersection without traffic lights.
1:55 That boy hitting that girl though
Lol
Yo me volvería loca 😵
En ese tráfico jajajaja 😂
None of that kind of traffic anyway these days :)Hello From Valencia, Spain!
I dared crossing streets in heavy traffic many times with no problem. You have to go full Zen to do so, just walk and don't think. Motorbikes will flow around you like water. So, earlier this year I was crossing near District 1 on Dien Bien Phu and McDonalds/Popeye Chicken and was thinking what my friends from rural Alaska would think of all the traffic WHAM! next thing I know I am flat on my back looking at the sky. I got knocked down by a motorbike and have a really cool scar in the shape of a map of Vietnam on my leg to prove it.
Oh, yeah .. accidents sadly happen and we've seen tons of them. And I agree it's probably safer to cross the street then in a country where drivers don't even expect any pedestrians (what you mentioned in your other comment) ... hope you were ok!!! And that a souvenir to bring home with you from the trip, goodbye Google Maps :)
@@For91Days One of the few times my years of martial arts training came in handy- I did a "break fall" with my arms to distribute the energy falling down so no damage to my head, no broken bones, just sore for a few days. Lots of people ran over to help me and block traffic. Vietnamese folk the friendliest in the world.
This wouldn't be possible if everyone drive car because car occupies to many space for just one man or two
Hello! I'm a video producer for INSIDER in New York and we're doing a video on traffic around the world. Could we use your clip in our video? We'll give you credit! Thanks and please let me know.
You can license it, sorry I didn't see this comment before. Best to get in touch with us via our travel blog to license this footage: ghana.for91days.com/
Motorbike
But I am missing there.
I bet they have a lot of scooter wrecks
We've seen some - not too serious but we've heard of worse.
For 91 Days Travel Blog the traffic is amazing there.... How much is fuel there
nope no scooter
@@daffydill5807 fairly affordable.
@@DatPhatThe What is the alternative .. I'm trying to imagine how traffic would look like if everyone would be driving a car.
I saw some kids are fighting
What .. where????? what minute?
@@For91Days 1:55.
@@MikoyanGurevichMiG21 maybe they were kidding
@@MikoyanGurevichMiG21 i saw it too that boy is mean you should not treat girls like that
Vietnam good
We loved our time in Vietnam ... we spend 6 month there and wrote over 180 articles about this amazing country... check them out on our Vietnam Travel Blog: saigon.for91days.com/ and hanoi.for91days.com/
Vietnam is awesome wish i can visit one day from Croatia🇭🇷🇻🇳
Vitinam liku u
Chaooos
I totally agree .. we even wrote about the crazy traffic in Vietnam on our Travel Blog - have a look, it contains some crazy pictures :) saigon.for91days.com/getting-around-in-saigon/
I guess it's cool that they have apps for this but one of my favorite parts about living in saigon for a year was hailing motorbike taxis (xe om) by making eye contact and making a revving motion with your hand, then probably getting totally ripped off.
Yes totally getting ripped off .. hehe! Also with the app you don't need to explain where you need to go and have a record who actually drove you.
But I hate that UBER bought up GRAB now ... we always tried to avoid UBER!! sigh
Then rejoice because you have it backwards. Grab bought Uber's SE Asian operations.
Is it branded as Uber or Grab?
Grab! :)
規律の欠如
Stop the feul to this countrie. GLOBAL WARMING.
Không ổn định, khó chịu, kém phát triển.
But not boring!

Don't they know Traffic Lights exist? Besides they don't respect the pedestrian zebra crossing, no, thanks, this discourages me to visit this city one day. This is no fun, seriously.
The crazy thing is ... you get used it and you can cross pretty easily if you follow some rules. We weren't bothered by it at all.
@@For91Days Except for 1 incident I mentioned above, I agree. There is an art to being a pedestrian and it is probably safer in Saigon than walking across street in Orlando, Florida.
