Frogger in Saigon

In Vietnam very few intersections have traffic lights. This makes for some general madness trying to get through intersections, especially if you're on foot.

You either have to go really fast when you have a small window, or walk really slowly and take each gap as it comes. I've decided that it's basically a real world version of Frogger. If you're a Seinfeld fan then you'll know what I'm talking about.
