Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

People often forget, this is only on highways/motorways. On surface streets (recognizable by their lack of entry/exit ramps/infrastructure and same level intersections) left lanes are for those expecting to turn left next, right lanes are for those expecting to turn right next, and middle lanes are for those who will be going straight past the next intersection, with some variance expected on occasion.
You don't need to tell me where you live.
Stroads.
Its sadly not only an America problem. Its not uncommon here in China to see 3 lanes each way, a seperated motorbike lane that's like 10 feet wide, a seperated bus/bicycle/car parking lane, 5 feet of bike parking, and then 15 feet of sidewalk.
And somehow cars still drive on the sidewalks.
Which country do you think this picture got taken in? Hint: It's not America, China or Dubai
I would have said Philippines but the avalanche of cars is missing. So I'll guess Myanmar?
Edit: Lol, I still had this post open from this morning and just saw that you already gave the answer
Probably some parade street in North Korea.
It's Myanmar
Based on the overall frequency of people from Southeast Asia vs. the US on Lemmy, my guess is still going to be "US" when people tell me about 3+ lanes on municipal roads, even though I am of course aware that such roads exist in other countries (including my own).
Where do they live?
