Maniacal Drive Through Belgrade’s Rush Hour
From Bezanijska Kosa to city center it usually takes around 20 minutes, if you’re lucky with the traffic. This guy, however, managed to get there in under 8 minutes during one of many Belgrade’s rush hours:
Of course, the only way to achieve this is by riding a motorcycle through 5 red lights, passing around cars on places where it’s forbidden, riding between the cars, driving in opposite lanes, and on sidewalk. All in all, enough traffic violations to ban him from the streets for life.
And who knows, maybe he is already arrested since this is his one and only video on youtube, posted six months ago.
As for the rush hour in Belgrade, it can get pretty messy and heavy sometimes, especially in the morning around 8, in the afternoon around 16h and once more in the evening around 19h, and of course, whenever it rains or snows. But the traffic makes a great scenery for a video clip, like this one, made by Davor Bosankic found via Karl Haudbourg. Enjoy:

As a one-shot run, the first one’s impressive but apart from that the bloke need his nappies changing. The second one is really brilliant.
This is a very nice new layout, and because of the pictures the backpost format is really good too. The font is really easy to read. The only problem is the advert is really rude the way it muscles in and there’s too much stuff on the right hand side.
I’ve seen my share of such videos, but this is the first one that has bits on cobbled road
Kudos for balls, but the guy nearly ran over a pedestrian at Bulevar Lenjina a couple of times…
Thanks for the layout comments, Owen, I’ll try to cut something out from the right hand side and remove some of the obtrusive ads.
I apologize to anyone who I scared or inconvenienced with this crazy ride of mine
