Vibha was working on a project in Cambodia, and she shared that most of the employees of the organization she was working with commute on bikes. Bikes indeed seem to be lifelines of the country. They were ubiquitous, especially in the cities. Bikes are the vehicle of choice for both men and women. They are so common that they are part of Cambodian Caricatures.

However, bikers in Cambodia are much more disciplined. You don't see them zipping around dangerously, though you would often see them overloaded and carrying things dangerously. But they stop to make way for you. Don't climb over pavements and don't drive on the wrong side. Guess our bikers can learn a lot for Cambodian bikers.
