Shiny helmets were lined up on the sidewalk of the main street running through Ho Chi Minh City. This was a street vendor's shop selling helmets. The number of registered motorbikes in Vietnam is increasing every year. The more motorcycles are registered in Vietnam, the more helmets will be sold, and sales are sure to rise along with the number of registered motorcycles.

Many motorcycles rode past the street vendors, who may have been counting the chickens before they are hatched. After a while, I saw another motorcycle coming. Unfortunately, the person on every motorbike was already wearing a helmet. No one showed up to stop and inspect the helmets. The motorbikes rode away as if nothing had happened.
