Taiwan traffic consists of scooters, subways, taxi drivers, buses, bicycles, pedestrians, and cars. As I almost been ran over numerous times since I have been here in Taipei, I had two very close calls these past couple of days. Yesterday I was crossing the street and it was dark and rainy. It was my turn to walk but of course the cars don't want to wait for pedestrians to turn and I almost got ran over. I just remember the car passed me with a blink of an eye and it even slowed down after it was turning since it was really close to me. I felt the wind brush me and it was so scary.
Then today while I was walking to the night market, the scooter was driving through the alley where me, Blake, and Drew were also walking. The scooter was driving so close and there was no room for it but of course they tried to drive regardless of seeing three pedestrians. This might be a little dramatic but I swear I felt the hair on my arm stand up lol I know I blogged about this before but these past couple of days have been bad!
