Desorden y desorganizado

The most comical every day scene on the streets of Córdoba is the array of various displays of transportation. I have not yet ventured to take out my phone and snap a quick photo in fear of being robbed, kidnapped, and thrown into the nearby river, but this photo is on my list, believe me. I can't help but let out a heartily obnoxious chortle every time I see this unusual occurrence. 

Let me paint the picture for you. Aside from the three lanes actually being used as four and a half lanes, the traffic flow is constantly in motion, and you squeak with fearing insistence of the barely making it preservation of human life as you run to cross the street. 

These are the vehicles in order of appearance: 
Motorbike
Honda CR-V
Car from the 70's 
Car from the 40's 
Horse racing down the street pulling a cart
Brand new BMW

Every time I see the horse pulling a cart at 20 mph in high traffic, I just want to yell "Lightening! Copperhead! Swedish meatballs!" at the top of my lungs and clap my hands.
