i remember driving in the Philippines (where they do that American wrong side of the road thing
)
I thought this driving on the other side of the road was easy until I turned a corner and noticed other cars heading straight for me, oops need to concentrate harder.
In Malaysia I recall seeing families riding on mopeds, now helmet laws were just that you needed to wear a helmet, there was no standard.
So sometimes you'd see Dad on the front with the outer fiberglass shell, Mum with the inner polystyrene part, and junior wedged in between.
Another time I saw someone with an aluminium saucepan on his head for a helmet, I'd hate to think what damage that would create if he fell off.
Oh and full face helmets were considered only for criminals wanting to rob banks.
