Tuktuk is the popular three-wheeled public transport rushing, squeezing throught eh congested streets of Bangkok.
Tuktuk is the countrpart of the pedicabs or tricycles in the Philippines.
There are variances though.
The tuk-tuk is right in the front-middle of of the vehicles main car.
So the tuktuk does not have a "side-car".The tutktuk has a reverse gear, triccles don't.
The tuktuk serve a convenient purpose off the main Bangkok streets.
There are the main public transport system like the rail, the taxis.
The rail stations are far from each other.So the tuktuk serves the routes in between.
The tuktuks come zooming in teh streets, sometimes disregarding traffice rules.
If you want to get from one place to another, the tuktuk driver knows it and he will take you "door-to-door".
I had to try driving a tuktuk. I couldn't resist.
The tuktuk is one of my memorable Bangkok expeirence.
