Burma Days Pt. 6 Mawlamyine

Today we came to Mawlamyine, a 160-something mile trip. It took about 6 hours. It didn't really feel like it, though. They drive seventy or eighty miles per hour, generally, and if you want to pass the cars in front of you, you just blow your horn drive past them on the other side of the road. You also blow your horn to help avoid pedestrians. The drive on the right side, as in America, but most of there cars are shipped from Japan, and their steering wheel is on the right side, unlike ours, so sometimes when you try to pass a car, you find yourself facing a car coming at you. Dogs and people walking in the road are common, and so are bikes and motorcycles. There are also some carts.

  1. The steering wheel being on the right but driving on the left of the road is a really strange combination.

    Also the formatting of the text of the last 2 sentences aren't consistent with the rest of the body. Thought I'd let you know.

    (Oh, almost forgot!) Answer to question: a Moosician.
