The streets were filled with hand carts today. I wonder if the carts are manned by a certain ethic group as most look more Asian that other peoples on the street of Kabul. 
A step up from the hand carts are the donkey carts hauling bigger loads.
Next up are bicycles and motor cycles. In Afghanistan, a rug is used to cover the seat! And a scarf is used instead of a helmet.
Dealing with traffic at the 4 pm rush hour requires an expert driver. Luckily, our driver is young, patient and experienced in nudging the SUV into lanes and streets against all odds…even in the rain! Perhaps a remnant from the British era, Kabul even has stands in the middle of the street for the traffic cop.
