My friend Meir Javedanfar alerted me to this shocking video clip of traffic in “Tohid Tunnel” in Tehran.
According to the commentary depicting accident after accident, 70,000 cars pass through the tunnel daily. More than 400 cars violate traffic laws in the tunnel each day. (seems like a low number to me)
Meir reports that the speed limit in the tunnel is 60 kilometers an hour — or about 38 miles/hour.
Sobering.
