Chinese Driving Tips

I made the mistake of driving in 南京. I really didn’t want to drive during this trip. I drove too much when I lived in 安徽. My views on drivers in China is nothing new. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. They’re without doubt the worst drivers in the world.

Wan is the Question

I complained about China when I lived there, mostly about the drivers, but it is a great country. The food is unbeatable. I have been unable to find real Chinese food since I left. There is some great scenery around 長江河, what the rest of the world calls the Yangtze River, and the Tibet Plateau is amazing. People who know me might remember that most of my complaints while there were about the bureaucracy and especially the very bad drivers. As a visitor I will not have to deal with any of that. I will only have the usual travel bureaucracy and hopefully I can get others to do all my driving.
