Overloaded Motorbikes (Short Series - Vietnam)

[Msteelio91]

During my time in Cambodia and Vietnam it became very clear that we do not use motorcycles to their full potential in the USA. That said, about 5% of riders were practicing safe methods while on the road.

The following set is a somewhat entertaining compilation of some severely overloaded scooters/motorbikes seen in Vietnam. My only regret is that I have no picture of a chap that was transporting a massive, solid wood, couch AND hutch. He was transporting them at about 4am and we saw him while driving to the airport, so sadly I did not have my camera equipment ready and it was too dark for the cell phone! Anyway, enjoy the mini-set below:
