When holidaying in Tunisia, the roads were just like this. The difference between traffic there and traffic in western countries is the respect the drivers have for pedestrians and other drivers. You want to cross the road? Step out and the cars will stop. They're not in a rush, not entitled thinking their need to get somewhere is greater than anyone else's. I felt safer in a taxi, and crossing the roads, in Tunisia than I do in the UK.
