Bangkok - more taxicabs than tuk-tuks
Taipei - all taxicabs, no tuk-tuks
I miss having tuk-tuks around, how it can both stop and turn on a dime, how it can squeeze itself into the space between two moving cars, how every pothole and speedbump is acutely felt, how extra passengers can simply grab hold for a ride even while most of their limbs hang outside the vehicle, and how the driver starts the engine by either pulling on a cord (like a lawnmower) or pulling on a long rod quickly. On the other hand, there is also something to be said about sitting in a vehicle with doors and seat belts.
