Pedicab (from the Hokkien language: some chia "cart horse") is a three-wheeled mode of transportation that is commonly found in Indonesia and also in parts of Asia. Normal capacity rickshaws are two passengers and a driver. Being a rickshaw driver is one way to get the most simple living, so the number of rickshaw drivers in areas of high unemployment rate would be very high. Rickshaw was banned in Jakarta in the late 1980s. Official reason, among others, at that time was that the rickshaw is the "exploitation of man by man", and rickshaws replaced by Bajaj, Helicak.
In Indonesia there are two types of rickshaws are commonly used:
* Pedicab with the driver behind. This species usually exist in Java.
* Pedicab with the driver's side. This type is usually found in Sumatra. For this type of pedicab can be subdivided into two sub-types, namely:
1. Pedal pedicab - Pedicab who use bicycles as a rudder.
2. Motorized pedicab / rickshaw engine - Pedicab who use motorcycles as a driver.
In some other countries there is a pedicab driver in front, as developed in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, which later developed this concept in the bajay taken from India in the 1970s.
