Las Terrenas 1-30-24 Crazy Traffic

Las Terrenas, Samana, Dominican Republic
January 30, 2024
Riding a Loncin SX2 250cc home from the gym through the Las Terrenas traffic around lunch time on a Tuesday. There were a few tight squeezes.
Going from Gimnasio Forma y Nutricion near the welcome arch at the top of town down through town to Punto Popi. We pass the bus station on the right very early, before the guagua (smaller busses) station.
This is a typical commute through town, plenty of pasolas (scooters) and motos (motorcycles) squeezing through traffic. This was a pretty calm day, mild congestion, no crazy drivers, only saw one wheelie, hardly anything of note. There was the one legged scooter driver, but you do see that often here, as well as one armed motorcycle operators.
We took Boulevard Turistico Del Atlantico to Avenida Juan Pablo Duarte to Calle Nuestra Señora Del Carmen to Avenida Juan Pablo Duarte to Avenida 27 de Febrero, ending by Le Tre Caravelle, Solaz Hotel, Villa Infinity and Le Fenice, right before Punto Popi and the Las Terrenas sign. I love the traffic and roads here, though they are very deadly. I don’t drive at night.

Fantastic video and description! Almost nobody tells you the date their video was actually taken, let alone the time of day and all the other details you've taken the time to provide. Also enjoy the commentary as you are riding. Hope you can make some more videos in/around Las Terrenas.
