We are a city of scooters

 

I took a little ride downtown last weekend to see a friend at Taipei’s annual camera exhibition.  It was pretty much a geekfest, and I was happy to be one of them.  The fortunate news is that I only spent nt$200 (US$6) and it was on a completely non-photography related item.

Anyway, there were a few overpasses that I crossed and one of them had a view of a few scooters.  This is a perfect representation of what you’d see at nearly any intersection in Taipei, scooters scrambling for their small section of the road.

Construction is always a hassle for commuters
