Who is the real King of the Road

     

 Bangkok                                                              Sakon Nakhon                                       

Cattle ain't dumb.  I could hardly believe my eyes

A dozen cattle are about to cross a four lane road.
One cow and one calf walk into the road, they block traffic from both directions. Like crossing guards at a school.
The elder roadguard looks around and snorts: "All Clear."
The patiently waiting herd now crosses the street.
The 'road guards' retreat and follow the herd.

Motor traffic resumes.

Pedestrians crossing the street, that is 'another' story. 
Everything with wheels has the right of way.

Those white stripes you thought identified crosswalks?  They are just a suggestion.
When crossing a road remember double lines in the center of the road are pedestrian safety zones.
