"habal-habal"



A means of transportation called "habal-habal" in the Philippines. The first time I saw it was when I first visited Mindanao back in 1990s. I got amazed when it would race the hell of the buses and other vehicles in the highway. Great really with the real skillful drivers but with great risks among the passengers.

But they claim the buses have more accidents than they are on the road hhhhhmmmmmmm.

That is a single motorcyle with attached two wooden planks on the side which carries at least 5 passengers each plank. If not humans, they carry sacks of market goodies such as rice, corn har har har.

Really amazing.
