Saigon vs. NYC Commuter Vibe

Stephan Schier - Thursday, December 03, 2009

Vietnam is a country of over 85 million inhabitants and 20 million mopeds.  Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) is a city of over 5 million where many of these machines congest the streets.  If you think your commute is knarly, contrast these two videos below.  The first is taken by our friend and favorite man about the globe, Gregg Bleakney, during a non-rush hour (no kidding) period on Saigon's streets.  The second is our friend Paul Steely White's relatively sedate and well-produced interview through the streets of New York.

How does the vibe of your commute compare?
