8.000 deaths, 32.000 hurt a year in all of Egypt traffic, of which most in Cairo. Try crossing a street as a pedestrian, it's pure HELL!

  • jesus...

    wtf happening to these guys?

  • @manodacasa6 yeah total anarchy there, on 3 official lanes they drive with 5. Less than 5 cm from each other, so almost every car (mostly taxis) is damaged lol. When u sit in front u often close ur eyes or scream, lol. Crossing a road is a suicide attempt, still ppl do that, even in the dark - while lots of cars dont have their lights on. It's almost an attraction to watch this beehive. Number of accidents are - amazingly enough - not extremely high tho, so for THEM it seems to work. Oh well...

  • @manodacasa6 oh and the useless beeping is another egyptian habit. So if u ever go there: when ur bookin a hotel, ask for a room at the backside lol.

  • I want to drive with Theo!

  • @bluetagg Nah he wud be screamin and cursin in Cairo Dave, no fun at all ;-)

  • hahaha organized chaos? I guess you must get used to it after a while. I was born in Romania so I know how it's like to deal with over crowded roads. It's not as bad as it looks, people learn to become very good drivers, as I'm sure most egyptians are.

  • 00:50 - the only guy that uses a signal lol

  • looks like manhattan nyc lol
