tell you that you shouldn't stop at this intersection it's a hunting ground not for humans up for crocodiles with over a hundred of them in the area in some parts of the world tourists can Cross Glass

ideal place to enjoy an audio book while driving on the road and being a pedestrian here is an experience you wouldn't wish on anyone the cities are filled with millions of motorcycles yet surprisingly they managed to avoid collisions oh my goodness oh my goodness dude what's going on it's simpler than it looks the lack of traffic signs and lights forces everyone to be more attentive since they can't rely on rules making each person responsible so even in this chaos there's a certain logic if you grew up in a snowy area you've probably dug tunnels in the snow but Japan took it a
