Driving in Addis!

When you are in Addis, you usually have drivers in taxis. The first few times we went through town, I was SOOO amazed that we didn't make an accident as the drivers have to make they're way. There are not a lot of lanes, lights or stops signs, so they just honk their horn and hope that the other car stops and dive right into the traffic.....Lots of time you really think that there is not enough room for the taxi to go through but they are such amazing drivers and they always do !

Sometimes you are going head on with other cars and when you get close enough someone moves in their lane. There is not really lane you can drive anywhere really....

In this video, we were really downtown so you don't really see much of what I'm saying as here it is more structured and had a few lanes but it was high traffic that Monday morning and I thought you would still all enjoy to see a little bit of the driving in Addis !

Enjoy
