China's roads 馬路上的中國

[skylee]

I watched one part of this 3-part series the other day and it was interesting. Take a look if you are intersted.

Part 1 is called 中國式過馬路 (Crossing the road Chinese style) and Part 2 is called 中國式開車 (Driving Chinese style).

Thank you Skylee.

The mytv.tvb links don't work for me. They just redirect me to the homepage.

Not sure how to fix it. But you should be able to find the programmes on the MyTV website. If necessary, use the langauge setting at the bottom of the homepage.

The programmes (Chinese) can also be found on youtube -

One thing stands out as odd to me... I wonder how taking a photo/video can be proof that you didn't hit someone.

to dwq: The video doesn't show whether or not you hit someone, as you tend to start filming after it happened.

 

What it is meant for is to get a statement from the 'victim' that you are not resbonsible, not at fault and that they will not demand compensation from you.

To avoid being scammed later while you're trying to be a good citizen.
