Well sorry to say…..No way is RIGHT,and I do know your country as I have lived and worked here in Taiwan for 15 yrs.Plus I add to this fact I have lived in most of the big cities here and a lot of small towns.And as is the norm here in Taiwan,I see accidents each and everyday as I do travel a lot both by car and scooter,some minor and some major,plus some fatal as No way pointed out …I had never seen a fatal accident until coming to Taiwan,and I do come from a big city in the UK. And your point YES we do and everybody does have accidents in our home countries but just not on the scale of Taiwan.Example to be given………………………..
I was shocked to see this sign in Chi-yi it read as follows For the month of January 26 people were killed on Bay-gan Lu
So here we have ONE road with 26 fatalities.This was 19 more than the whole of my city back home.
As for people dying every second and not seeing it……this is not the topic here,it’s about Taiwanese being horrible drivers “WHICH THEY ARE” so come on my friend stop living in a bubble and think the roses are fine because they are not.
Meaning the world over needs to get its act together all we will be all visiting people in your line of work a lot sooner than we need to……….So what are we going to do?????????

“Standards are non existent here”?
Name a country where EVERY SINGLE CITIZEN obey their country’s law. Jesus…go back home and study some history…and Im very sure you’re going to find out that NO SINGLE country has ever successfully made their citizens follow every single law the country has created. Standards is something different to everyone, if you try to put your standards to someone else, he or she might feel fxxked up because it is not their standards.

Whom ever you are…don’t comment on other peoples country if you are not familiar with that country and its citizens

I’ve seen the driving tests, the driving schools, etc. There are many cultural factors that come into play, such as people not waiting for the green light (They’ll wait for the other side’s light to turn red), people turning left before the people going straight have gone through, etc. Those certainly are cultural factors, but the fact of the matter is, the population density here is higher than most places back home, hence you will see more horrible drivers more often. You will see more accidents more often.

So, yes, you see a lot of accidents, but every one of those those accidents, how many days have you gone by not seeing an accident at all? I’ve gone weeks, if not months, without seeing an accident and even gone several days with nobody passing me on the shoulder, cutting in front of me, etc. It’s all a matter of perspective. If you choose to focus on the negativity (“Taiwanese are all horrible drivers!”), that’s what you’ll see.
