Asian road toll
Anyone considering riding a motorcycle in China, (I am working in Shanghai at the moment) check out the official road accident tolls below.
And they are only the official ones!
for an example, The Phiippines unofficial toll is: 9,000 deaths and 493,000 injuries.
Now how much was that insurance?
