Walking around Taiwan makes me realize the asian driver meme applies to pedestrians too Randomly stopping in the middle of intersections and blocking all traffic. Bicycles crashing into each other for no reason at 3mph. Cars just not seeing pedestrians on a crosswalk and turning directly into them, mowing everyone over at 12mph The US has way more nonsense but there's usually an explanation "He's hammered", "she's texting", "Illegal uninsured Mexican driving at 160mph" etc In Taiwan there is just no explanation. People are completely sober and focused entirely on the road but they collide anyway
