Yangon Traffic

Yangon traffic, Myanmar traffic



These 3 ton trucks,

a Ford V8, a Chevrolet and a G.M.C. (bib picture below) the first two remnants from World War II, the third from early postwar years, are reminders of a bygone era.

Almost all the original parts have been replaced except perhaps
the engine, head casing and chassis, yet these vehicles have mellowed
like good whisky and are still going strong.

Suspensions have been reinforced and like all vehicles in Myanmar,
the specified weight load is grossly exceeded.





Above some outside Yangon traffic

Japanese pick-up trucks with a 1 ton payload capacity are popular for passenger transport throughout the country. Equipped with wooden benches on each side and 5 stools in the aisle, these vehicles can seat 22 including the driver and two cabin passengers. With the 'spare man,' or conductor and 3 passengers on the running-board, the weight of the people alone is more than the stipulated payload.

This does not include the sometimes heavy baggage on the roof and extra passengers seated on top.





Traffic means for tourists at Mandalay -picture left-.
