They just get tossed in as a distraction from the topic under discussion by people short on a good point..

Most populous democracy on Earth!

It would be against the tide if that happened... in the last month the USdollar has weakened against baht from 38/$ to 35/$.

Perhaps Iranians are the next group of tourists set to come here and rescue the tourist industry, like the Indians and Russians have done. Next target is the Ku Klux Klan.

I bet they hear some doozies!

Of course it is not nonsense, I expect it would increase drunk driving.....can't find a taxi at that time. Thailand needs to get drink driving under control first, hopefully make it socially unacceptable like in the West.(Not saying it does not happen). Nightclubs probably don't open before 8pm at the earliest, so workers have only worked 8 hours at 4am....

Wow, they have gone up market... thought they were under 60,000 baht.

At the location of the Jomtien 2nd Rd incident, there were barriers to force the use of the crossing.

It seems to work with the locals......

Good point... the poor ones manage without. Should take it off him, at least stop him injuring others!

Don't go thinking a house will always be better...... neighbors are not always considerate. With a house comes pets and a modified motorcycle!

Because actually, that is what you are dealing with.

No, that is not the case... I had a neighbour used to pawn his and it was just a reasonable condition pick up. Got short of cash sometimes and work was hard to find, he could do without transport for a week or so.

They are kind of still talking about it. Like during the pandemic, rules were put out there to test the waters, then a good bit of back-pedaling and confusion!

Everything in it's place perhaps. Maybe the promenade is not the place for it.... why not simply line the streets in soi 6? People strolling the front should not have to endure being groped by this freak show.

Build it, and they shall come. I am not familiar with this building.. is it an airconditioned waiting area for the ferry. I would certainly go and sit in there and enjoy AC rather than wait out in the sun.

What nonsense, trying to justify the unjustifiable with theses blatant lies. I would have more respect if he simply admitted to a panic attack and a feeling of having to run! And what is his response for failing to stop in the first place? Living here it really gets tiresome being told dim lies and it is an insult to be expected to believe such stuff. I hope he pays compensation, covers treatment costs and gets some of these new points on his driving licence for failing to stop. He could have put the guy in a wheelchair for the rest of his life, or ended it there and then.

Au contraire... it is a very liberal place and the locals are free to do as they please,...drive without due care and attention, or need of licence whatever, half keep dogs and let them disturb all and sundry, they certainly have a liberal attitude to sexual encounters, unlike the Victorian attitudes of the West. Low levels of taxation if they bother at all. Sure, the place has got laws on the books, but little attempt to enforce them. I feel I have a level of freedom here I would not see in my own country. And don't even think to compare to that so called bastion of liberty (so they think), the USA... snared by their ancient outdated rules. Playing lip service to liberty. Wherever you are returning to, good fortune.... my country, (UK) where transport is on strike, hospitals are unable to help you, or crime ridden USA, where various words are taboo and you cannot utter them and it's no go areas! I shall stay here where people in the main mind their own business and do not preach how others should behave!

No wonder I can never find any for the baht bus.

And from anywhere!

Appears true...recently they have built plenty new ones around town, red colored (dare I ask why red?). And we have had a spate of hit and runs!

Lovely story... what a Klutz!

I can honestly say...It's Back!

Blatant bare faced lies!

Not in our lifetimes!
