Dog in the Street

The video depicts a scene that is “normal” in Taiwan but quite unusual in the USA. This is a 3 way intersection with no traffic signage. I have seen that a lot in Taiwan and when you drive you just have to figure it out on the fly. What makes this intersection even more confusing is the dog resting in the middle of the lane. In the USA I would think that the dog would be dead or injured but in Taiwan this is “normal”. It is common to see a dog just go to sleep in the middle of the road with complete disregard for traffic. Drivers see the dog and just give it some space. Driving in Taiwan is organized chaos…it all makes sense…even the dogs figured it out.
