The mentality is beyond understanding, every time I use a roundabout I do so with caution as they don't know the road rules even after sitting in the DL video room for hours watching videos.
Yesterday 5 on a bike 2 babies a teenager and 2 adults, no helmets, even falung ride around with no helmets, occasionally the police pick on a few for Tea money.
I wondered how the hundreds of Burmese get licenses, there was at least a hundred at the Transport Dept. when I renewed mine, I did not see any in the video room.
The trucks and bikes screaming along narrow roads with no muffler baffles, just straight through without baffles creating noise pollution that's almost unbearable and wake people up at night, is a huge blot on the traffic dept, someone is making a fortune selling and installing these, cowboys on bikes, no wonder they have such a high fatality rate with motorbikes
If the Police wanted to enforce this rule just sit outside the schools and catch thousands a day.
I have noticed they only pick on well dressed Thais and Falungs that go into town.
