'' most of the accidents took place on highways and roads in villages and sub-districts.''..... well who would have thought it ? Surely there are other places to have accidents !! I notice the Police in the roadside tents busy on their i-phones as the overloaded pickups and hooligan motorcyclists roar by . Come to think of it, it was the same last year and the year before and the years before that !!

As I commented in a previous item that his shirt was already full of trinkets which is probably why he had to hand it in !!

Tourists read about Pattaya beach getting washed away what can you expect ? lol

He's admitted the crime so why the re-enactment ?

...perhaps no more space on his uniform for more badges, medals ,pins and studs !!

I pull up to the line awaiting the green light. Idiot, selfish ,helmet-less knuckle-headed unlicensed noisy motorcyclists position themselves just in front of my bumper and have a quick look at their mobile as they also wait.  Lorry drivers, with their ecclesiastical nick-knacks hanging from the rear view mirror, 5 years of expired tax stickers neatly pasted across the windscreen, a curtain across the width of the  lower half of the windscreen, numerous stickers and umpteen mirrors blocking the edges of the screen couldn't give a damn. Traffic police are happy to these stupid motorcyclists and lorry drivers around the roads so what hope is there for an improvement in road safety ? The attached photo just one example !!

So Big Joke's poster on my local immigration office wall saying  ''No Tips'' will be taken down will it  !!!?

Surely it should be zero tolerance for all drunk drivers ...full stop.

I say ban all bananas, zucchinis, cucumbers, carrots and jack fruit !! 

So if I take a Doris from a Go Go bar for a couple of nights do I have to report this to Immigration ?!!!

How about electronic tagging for all expats ?!!

Is this one of the chaps that Big Joke was referring to ?

Posted earlier 'speed kills''.   Speed does't kill, it's the rate at which you stop that kills !!

So that 200 Baht underneath the sandwich box seemed to have worked !!

Bring plenty of water !!

Hopefully you won't drive it like the other Raptor owners who seem to show off in their pimped up pick-ups with the fancy bonnet air vent and 'big bolt' on wheel arches.... typical Ford stuff.

''plans for "special measures" to reduce road accidents''...... so I assume adequate roadside warnings were in place together with 'speed bumps' well in advance of the danger area..... oh well... just a thought anyway.  How many hours had the driver been awake or driving before he caused the bus to overturn ?

 RIP poor girl.

''The results of an inebriation test were forthcoming ''............ why the delay ?   .... perhaps waiting for the return of the brown envelopes !

Other countries that have grounded the 737 Max 8 simply have to ban other 737 MAX 8s from entering their airspace.

Put the dogs down, teach the people to dispose of rubbish properly to stop the rats. I live in a village where dog owners couldn't give two hoots about their dogs which rarely stay in the property or gardens.

There is something odd here........... lots of motorcyclists wearing helmets !!

'' when an oil tanker lost control ''...... really ?  Was this a self drive tanker ? Oh! no... not a brake failure again ?

RIP poor tourists .

Tourists. Thais and all school kids please take note. DO NOT STAND ON THE BACK STEP OF A SONG THAEW .
