SafetyTravel note
Cross the road slowly and steadily
Old Quarter, Hanoi, Hanoi
Published Oct 10, 2026 · RegretMap travel note
The situation
Hanoi's streets are full of motorbikes that rarely stop. Riders steer around pedestrians who move at a predictable pace; sudden stops and dashes are what cause trouble.
The lesson
Walk at a steady pace and don't run.
