The pressure of Spring Festival transport rush has driven some migrant workers in Guangdong to seek a different road home. The number of motorbikes departing from the city of Zhaoqing each day has increased from 500 to 10,000, reaching a cumulative total of 100,000 families who are choosing to ride motorbikes home rather than fight for tickets on the overcrowded Chinese rail system. Packs of workers will ride together and are often given a police escort. [Photo/Sina]
