How dangerous is riding in Vietnam?
Hello,
I'm riding in Vietnam in October. I've been advised that highways and major regional roads are exceptionally dangerous due to ill-disciplined bus and truck drivers, e.g. rounding corners on the wrong side of the road.
This all sounds pretty much like "situation normal" for travel anywhere in Asia. I have plenty of experience riding in Indonesia and Malaysia, covering highways through to unmapped tracks - is it significantly worse in Vietnam?
Are there any "no-go" roads in Vietnam from a riding point of view? (i.e. particularly dangerous traffic situation).
thanks
