Nice and bumpy. This one spot at 0:23 keeps bothering me no end. All I want is to go straight ahead. Instead I get an unnatural series of turns. I have to brake right after a descent, be very careful not to slip if it's wet, take a narrow line passing the pole on the right, and ensure drivers from left and right actually yield, with left requiring me to look behind me, all at the same time. People more often fail to yield at 1:05, but at least little else needs my attention there.

Bonus material: at 0:44 you can catch a glimpse of a collision scene at the adjacent bus crossing to the right. Given the large entourage of emergency vehicles that must've been serious. I hope you're not here to see it in detail, because I wasn't. Witnessing a fatal car–cat collision as it happened a few days ago was gruesome enough.
