the article does not say its a shared path, in fact it posted ''The trial was told that police could not "categorically" state whether the pavement was a shared cycleway.'' and '' Cambridgeshire County Council subsequently reiterated that and said it would review the location, but in his sentencing remarks Judge Sean Enright said it was a shared cycleway.'' so the judge stated it was a shared path, but against what the police and the council have stated, that must be grounds for an appeal, either the council have made it a shared path or not, signs etc should show one way or another.

Sugguestions - electric small city 4 door car.
steve187 replied to scorecard's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
so your thinking that over 18years, the car will pay for it self in saved petrol. so the running costs will be wear and tear on tyres and parts, not sure about the money saved to be used buying a new car at 18 years in the future prices, but i get your point, what sort of mileage do you expect to drive in those 18 years to save the 1million? 20,000km per year -
Should co-owners pay for EV scooter charging.
steve187 replied to Cricky's topic in Motorcycles in Thailand
no i am not saying that and my post doesn't imply that, the gym is open to all and when you took on the condo, you were fully aware of the associated costs of the gym and all the communal areas, not someone plugging in a privately owned electric draining device for personal use ( phones and tablets are a minimum drain) if the scooters were communal that would a different matter, when would personal devices become over the top, EV motor-cycles, or EV cars,etc. i refer back to my post on extensions leads to run kitchen appliances would that be taking the p**s or would that be acceptable to you, at some point the people will be seen as taking the p**s, given an inch they will want a mile. it will never affect me, but why should others pay for other peoples EV's to be charged -
Sugguestions - electric small city 4 door car.
steve187 replied to scorecard's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
looking at all the pros and con for an EV as opposed to an ICE machine, i think battery costs as highlighted in the BYD crash, are prohibitive, yes some come with a long warranty, and yes advances in the future will make them cheaper and extend the distances between charges, but that's in the future, not know, and in the future EV may be replaced by the next advancement, (look at cd's replaced bu mp3's) but at some time everyone buying an EV vehicle now to keep long term, will need a new battery sometime in their ownership, and that comes at a huge cost, also taking into account the charging of the vehicle, queues on motorways waiting for chargers etc, ICE is well tried and tested, and has been around for a 100 years, all these points are why i choose a new ICE car over EV, i still think nearly a year later i made the right choice, regardless of all i posted above, it may make sense for some owners to go EV, as in the op 's case, but looking at the cheapest EV that is fit for purpose would be the way to go, almost a disposable vehicle after a set number of years. -

hybrid i think the best value would be the MGEP, in the 700,000thb range, the zs is in the 900,000+ range, the good cat is no longer having orders placed, due to demand but again in the 900,000thb range i believe, the really cheap ev vehicles are not road legal, the volt city ev is for the 4 door 385,000 or 425,000thb, not sure is they can be registered, or if they are safe enough especially if carrying children -

you became Thai after entering Thailand on a non Thai passport, if you were already Thai on entry using a non Thai passport, you would have to obtain a 1 year extension to non Thai passport entry, until you entered on a Thai passport
