First come, first served in Ho Chi Minh City.
It looks like an ordinary intersection in a busy urban street. But a closer look reveals the absence of an important, and obvious, feature: traffic lights.
But drivers in Vietnam's largest city, formerly Saigon, seem to know exactly how to negotiate this crossroads. There even appears to be a kind of rhythm to the traffic flow without any sudden braking or swerving and pedestrians appear to be able to cross the junction without having to wait for a significant gap in the traffic.
It's definitely a case of "go with the flow".
However, there is no question that a fairly high degree of bravery is needed to cross the roads in the city!
