transport food
If you come to Lagos should expect a lot of traffic. Lots of traffic, but no chaos, because everything works - somehow. Here on the mainland is hardly traffic lights, no signs, no crosswalk and no sooner find someone to adhere to traffic regulations. Here, first go all purely in an intersection, is agreed to before, whoever goes first. Everything following the principle: "the strongest wins. This must be said, however, that there are few intersections, but many roundabouts. On VI (Victoria Iceland) Iceland and parts of Lagos can be found on the other hand level traffic with traffic lights, traffic signs and rules. But since I'm not there often, I get like this with little. Here There is plenty of storage, but somehow you can get by forever. The drivers (especially taxi and bus drivers) are found in the master abbreviations. But it must have been here himself, to understand the system here.
serve as public transport here:
The Lagbusse, the rather European travel along a certain line with bus stops, but have no precise timetables.
"Yellow Bus", light trucks, which often originate from Europe and slogans such as "Flowers and Gifts paradise" or "Bakery Mueller" have. You go along a certain line, but to see the rare bus stops and can be got out pretty much everywhere. The money is often collected by the driver or an accomplice, and in smaller amounts to 10-50 trips Naira (5-25 cents).

faster but also more expensive, Keke Napep the meandering beside the stationary cars. They work much like the "Yellow Bus", three people behind and carry one next to the driver on the driver's bank run, but also surcharge like to other routes.
taxis are more expensive, but for a price of 4 euros an hour is still considerably cheaper than German taxes.
faster than taxis, but only for short distances, are the Okada. Motorcycles, on which up to two people can get behind the driver. Okada is the ride with a fast but also dangerous because the driver was at an incredible speed between cars meandering and taking sharp turns.
The streets can be crossed here for full traffic, you just have to find the right way through the cars, motorcycles and Kekes. Thus, Lagos remains an adventure.
