For locals living in Ho Chi Minh City, the main means of transportation seems to be motorcycles. Even though buses are running, it's no wonder that public transportation such as trains and trams are underdeveloped. Everyone gets around on a motorcycle. The main streets of this city were full of motorcycles. The street in this photo was also quite wide, but it was also jammed with a lot of bikes.
Watching people riding their motorbikes, it seems that it is compulsory to wear a helmet. They were all wearing helmets and crawling through the traffic. It's easy to get frustrated when I am stuck in traffic, but some people were laughing on their motorbikes. Of course, some of them had a difficult look on their faces.
