The bridge in the previous shot is in use but it is very narrow and further 
restricted by posts that will allow only small 
vehicles through. In addition, the rise towards the centre of the bridge means 
that those who get through the width restrictions 
cannot see what is coming from the other side so vehicles frequently meet in 
the middle and one has to reverse all the way off.

For vehicles that are too wide and for drivers who wish to avoid another car 
coming towards them on the bridge there is a ford. 
Some drivers inch through the water to keep brakes dry while others see it as 
an opportunity to go into Paris-Daka rally mode:
