The shortcut is a small path between Berawa and Batu Bolong (2 parts of Canggu, comparing in Ulm with Oststadt and Söflingen). On that way cars are usually only allowed one way, motobikes are free both ways. Usually, but what means usually here? Nothing! There is of course a proper road to drive around but due to traffic everybody tries to escape it and save time. Everyday cars are driving both ways. The road is tiny and bad, with bumps and holes, and of course too tiny for 2 cars at the same time. But who cares? So and because sometimes people ignore this fact (both, foreigners and locals) pics like this happen almost everyday. Sometimes there are scooter driver as well (and those are definitely only foreigners, mostly girls, no experience driving a scooter and sometimes drunk). OMG! At the end I really feel just sorry for the rice farmers as they lose an amount of rice plants. And the towing car owner is here the big winner! His business may grow everyday :-)
I pray everyday for the people to finally learn something from the things happening there and that never, never a serious accident will happen. And of course I pray for myself not to become a part of the Canggu Community posts :-)
