OwdChina Posted March 8, 2009 Author Posted March 8, 2009 good grief, how to reduce this, back to drawing board
55bloke Posted March 8, 2009 Posted March 8, 2009 What baffles me is, how the hell do they build loads like that? Why doesn't it all collapse long before it gets as big as that?
OwdChina Posted March 8, 2009 Author Posted March 8, 2009 now then, let's try this...goddammitit cannot be this difficult

KruJoe Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Loving your work, Chinaboy. Looks like you got it sussed with your last post: just hit [enter] between each image code. I *heart* this: Classy. Wish I was back in Chiang Mai sometimes. You got some ace action shots, were you often a passenger in a minibus or summink? I did catch many "in the thick of it" traffic jam pics, as I was always piloting my Honda Dream... it's alright on a quieter straight road to operate with my camera with my left hand as I ride, but.(My spottings: Click ) Let's have some more!
FredTransit Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 WTF is going on with those skeletal vans/trucks? Are they so poor they sold the bodywork? Or is it a GVW issue ?
Station Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 These photos make 10 times more sense than the UK's regulations. I'd love to see any of this on our roads, I'm sick of the non-working laws and rules we have to adhere to.
garethj Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 Heroic failure at cloning Mitsubishi Animal ? Didn't I see one of those in Mad Max? Ah, here we are Can you get booster seats for this kind of family car?
trigger Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I saw a family of 10 on one of these bad boys in the Philippines last year!
OwdChina Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 Yes KJ. a lot of these taken from works van. It's a 10 seater Toyota thingy, possibly the best lookin van in China. Fred T. the front end is rotary cultivator of varying sizes, they just attach a truck tub/rear end and add a seat.....maybe also a roof for extra big loads, keep the rain off, that sort of thing. Most of the time it's chaos. The last pic is one morning when the Chinese got out of bed and appeared to have completely forgotten which side of the road to drive on. Amazing.
OwdChina Posted March 10, 2009 Author Posted March 10, 2009 Here's a few more everyday sights. I'll get the wierd stuff done, then start the copy/old shite. Mad Max at aint. Major roadside repairs are common here. This thing was here for a few days while they rebuilt the axle. This junction is usually like national bangers fig of 8. They put a set of lights in to stop the daily carnage, however the picture above demonstrates it didn't stop all of em. Same junction.
