Many people were riding on a cycle rickshaw in Dhaka. It appeared that an entire family was riding in one cycle rickshaw. There were four people on it, including three adults and a girl. That's a lot of people.
The cycle rickshaws in Bangladesh have a covered seat in the back, just like the ones in India. I am not sure if there is a capacity for this type of bicycle cab. But four persons are probably too many. The man on the far right has no place to sit, so he puts only his hips on the seat and his body in front of it.
I feel sorry for the rickshaw driver who pedals this cycle rickshaw. These pedals must be quite heavy. Sure enough, the cycle rickshaw was only moving at a sluggish pace.
