Plan a trip

Crossing the street in Hanoi

Walk slowly, keep walking and never run. The traffic will flow around you.

The rule that surprises every visitor: do not wait for a gap. There will not be one.

Walk at a steady pace

Motorbikes judge where you will be in a second. If you keep a steady pace, they pass behind or in front of you.

Do not run, do not stop

Running or stepping back is what causes trouble.

Watch the cars and buses

Motorbikes flow around you. Cars and buses do not. Let them go.
