According to an unwritten rule, drivers of bigger vehicles have the advantage on the road. Therefore, it is useless to hope that the driver of a large truck will give way to a passenger car, and the driver of the latter, in his turn, will pay attention to numerous motorcyclists.
If you plan to visit petrol stations and shops located near roads, it is better to keep some small amount of money in the glove compartment. You should take out the wallet as rare as possible, especially at petrol stations and in shops for drivers.
Many local people offer their services of “guarding the parked car”. It is recommended not to refuse such services. You should give a small tip to the “guard” and promise to pay a certain sum on return. In this case, there is little hope that the abandoned car will be really guarded.
