I find this stereotype true everywhere around the world where there are Asian immigrants.
If you have been to Chinese cities, it is chaos. No one follows any rules.

Australia, USA - Terrible. Why is this so?
My theory is that they are short, and they cannot see the road properly, therefore drive slower than usual, overly cautiously and make dangerous moves because they didn't check all spots.
Second theory is they get blackmarket licenses as they have no chance of passing the driving exam (in english) and therefore have never been formally taught the road rules.
