One thing I haven't ever done is DRIVE in Hong Kong. I've thought about renting a car for one day to go from Bride's Pool to Shek O to Tuen Mun to Tung Chung. I am slightly terrified of facing HK taxi drivers...
Oh boy, how exciting.

If you have driven on the same side of the road as HK in the past (i.e. in UK, Australia, Japan or Singapore), and possess a valid license, you should be able to manage.
The real challenge is not the actual driving skill, but knowing where you are going. Navigation is the bigger test because HK road signs aren't the best and knowing which lane you have to go on needs practice and experience in some cases. So the key is to plan your journey well beforehand. Google Map is not always the best help since they sometimes get the route wrong. Better to get a specific map for drivers and plan which road you want to use rather than decide to go on an impulsive urge without prior planning.

You obviously have no clue what you are talking about. But I am sure most geoexpaters are wise to your nonsense by now. Try driving in LA or New York. Or Italy or Russia. Or India. All of those places have drivers worse than HK. And I haven't even mention Mainland China...Original Post Deleted
And there are plenty of bad drivers cams in the US, UK, Russia, India etc, you name it. Doesn't make HK drivers especially worse. They are certainly not the best, I will say that. But the worse drivers around? Nope.Original Post Deleted
