Western countries are catching up - but then that's because the best "women" are men ...

You do wonder why 95% of traffic accidents reported on here involve drunk Chinese people ?

I think the Chinese accidents probably attract more attention. They have the shiniest cars and the most spectacular crashes. I'm surprised how many drivers walk off without a scratch.

On the positive side, I'm sure I saw some news item somewhere recently saying that the number of Cambodian traffic accidents has declined this year. If that's true, it's good news.

I would consider Chinese accidents without Khmer or else injuries as already on the positive side, filtering out some of the drunkards, the addicts, the gangsters...
I rarely see some whole Chinese family involved in accidents, it's a particular demographic with a particular behavior 95 % of the time indeed ^^
