Italy - Rome - Scooter riders in heavy traffic

During Rome's chaotic rush hour, we see a fleet of scooters being ridden towards the viewer. Apparently chased by other commuters' cards at this busy road juntion, the traffic comes towards us as it passes over the yellow stripes of a pedestrian crossing who are probably huddled on the pavement awaiting a halt in the traffic flow. In the foreground is a young man without a helmet whose hands grip the handlebars and whose face looks at us as he rides hard ahead of his contemporaries, also on two-wheeled vehicles.
