    No porsches in Vietnam, but 1,000,000 scooters.

    Rennteamers, currently in Vietnam vacationing and have yet to see a porsche let alone other German vehicles. Seen a few mercedes and bmw. What I have seen is some incredible driving from the native people. There are really no stops signs or signals. It's kind of a free for all. They just go not really abiding by any road conduct, but for some apparent reason, traffic just flows. Haven't seen any accidents, and have ridden on the back of a taxi/slasher scooter. Very wild experience. Also, interesting. Most places don't valet cars but do valet your scooters. Have to go, but greetings from Saigon.

    Re: No porsches in Vietnam, but 1,000,000 scooters

    if u think that is interesting you should visit Goa, the towns of Anjuna and Calangute! (north Goa).

    One of the weirdest experiences of your life!! as long as you know what to do and where the interesting things are happening you wont be disappointed.

    Scooters?? Just there in November. I did't see any scooters!

    Re: No porsches in Vietnam, but 1,000,000 scooters

    No helmets!!?

    (hm...come to think of it, maybe it's just the UK that you have to wear one to ride a scooter...?)

    Helmets were made a legal requirement for motorcycle riders (includng scooters) in Vietnam just two years ago now. They were beng sold on street stalls for a couple of dollars! They obviously didn't catch on.

    Thanks for the pictures! My mother learned to drive her first car on the streets of Saigon.

    The architecture is very interesting, very vibrant looking city. And on your friend. Thanks for the pics.

    As for porsches, you never know, it looks like an old turbo twist wheel style on the blue scooter in pic #3.

    Re: No porsches in Vietnam, but 1,000,000 scooters

    Vietnam is so beautiful!

    I miss it sooo much.
