i've spent lots of time in SE asia (not vietnam) but this is the way it is over there.

and in all but the very largest urban areas there is no such thing as stoplights or stop signs.

and millions of people are moved fairly efficiently this way without injury.

but contact speeds are low, and cultually the people are not argumentative or given to "road rage" or "right-of-way" issues such as we have in the western world.

being pleasant has it's own rewards.

and, as an aside, IMO this pleasant "happy" culture makes the women of SE asia some of world's most desirable..
