I saw a lot of this type of thing in Guatemala in the late 60's and 70's.
Crazy dangerous.

I'v seen a couple videos of families traveling to and from places like that on break.  That and people laying on their back with their helmet tipped up steering and throttle presumably with feet txting away on a highway.  People can do some pretty ridiculous things :cookoo:

That is how life is in the aftermath of Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge and years of communist brutality.  Be warned!

This family is lucky.  At least they have wheels!
