Lower driving age/no license required

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

There are a number of variables... speed of oncoming truck/SUV, "safety in numbers" factor, etc

I've spent 7 months being whizzed around on the back of a moto, and would still rather not ride one myself. At least not when it's busy.

After driving over ten years and 100000km in TH/KH, I've found there are at a minimum an infinite number of variables to safely driving here, thus even the safest of riders is constantly at risk!
