I’ve spent some time in SE Asia and am convinced those people have no peripheral vision whatsoever. Trying to get a waitress’ attention is near impossible; you find yourself waving both hands frantically in the air about 5 minutes after you thought that raised eyebrow might grab her attention. Guess walking around with dozy half shut eyes has its downsides.

If you want to avoid accidents, you don't have to restrict yourself from riding a motorcycle. Just understand that it is not for driving anywhere near a city, which too many people think is the perfect environment for one. Find country roads, enjoy yourself for an afternoon, and then drive the nice steel protective cage when you have to approach areas of 'urban development.'
