Tehran/Iran: Flow of traffic across a major crossroads w/o traffic lights

Who could believe this without seeing it with own eyes:

Cars, buses, motorycles, bycicles and pedestrians cross at Imam Khomeini Square almost without anyone stopping! Have a look at this fascinating scenario. Obviously the traffic lights are meaningless and traffic more continuous than in other places where traffic lights are really used!

You're absolutely right! Other nations could learn at least a bit from that...

@reloader248 My first comment was in the context of the video. People can say what they want and write figures they want. I fully understand that there are people who have politically motivated opinions about Iran and I respect people's opinions in a dynamic of mutual understanding and friendship. But I am a neutral, I am not Iranian. Like I said before, my comment was in the context of the video, but of course I know that there are millions of people who die in other countries unjustly.

@mnanauk I guss you can do that. Take a one minute video of the traffic where there is luckly no accidents to show that people can handle themselfs in traffic without traffic rules. I dont think anyone is better at the sort of false propaganda then Bagdad Bob.

@reloader248 I haven't seen anyone injured or dead in this video. But It's good that you agree.

@mnanauk 30000 dead and 300000 injured every year in traffic in Iran. It really shows that those people use common sens, intelligence and compassion. I totaly agree with you!!!!
