Many places around the world are pretty scary:

Iranian Taxi Ride: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBVAeAJVtmY

I remember watching a documentary about Iran and the host was talking about how much safer the "unregulated" taxi services are. Of course he qualified by saying "safer" was a pretty kind word as they almost crashed several times during filming.

That's crazy? Compared to the western world, sure, but seems pretty uneventful based on what I've seen in India.
The danger I meant were passengers getting robbed, raped, etc.
What's crazy about that? He drove perfectly fine for a taxi.
That didn't seem scary at all.
