The filmmakers failed to mention that some people, at least in Thailand, get taken by tuk-tuk.


I wonder what the bold text in the above means.

A tuk tuk is a form of motorised rickshaw or taxi. It has one wheel at the front and 2 at the back and seats two, plus the driver. They are everywhere in Bangkok.
