Awesome - Love it.

Reminds me more of the scene from 'Birdcage' where Agador Spartacus (the Gay Butler) is dancing around the pool in a bright G-Banger

illogical (by western standards); a percentage is a percentage, a ratio; the amount of the prizes goes up, so does the percentaged amount

Percentage not same your Country Mister

Taxi drivers - crash course - an unfortunate choice of words...

Yeah, like they need schooling in that 

That's all I got for this one

I got 1 million baht. That's the easy part.  Now how do I convince 500 Thai visa members to support and join The FFF party. Then we can register. Cool.

Join my 4FS party also

You seem to have temporarily forgotten the #1 tenant of "Thainess" - Blame everyone else

And the police commander of Phuket deserves a big reward...they should give him the monthly salaries of the 3 worst provinces' commanders.

Yes, he should be well rewarded. He only let one real statistic slip through the Media Net

More photo op, finger pointing, and hot air.

 

Solution is better driver training and real police enforcement. Not just infrequent road checks. Actually chasing a violator (speeding, red light runner, weaving, etc) would be good.

Yep, instead they will find improved ways to manipulate the road statistics during these 'Brains Trust' initiative campaigns

Yeah, they'll all become Christians next where the dead come back to life and float off to heaven, but of course westerners would never believe such rubbish would they .......

 

If only the Thais could be like us.

Well, they certainly don't practice 'True' Buddhism here

Those who won't pay still won't pay, no matter how 'easy' they make it !

Exactly.

That was one of the first 2 things that sprang to mind immediately.

The 2nd was, where in Thailand is anything (involving paperwork) ever done in 3-minutes. Hand over your ticket and be handed back 16 other forms; "Need photocopy Mister"; computer down; not open Buddha Day... The list goes on

It’s about time people started to stand up against rip off merchants. It’s about princeable. Well done.  A few more vidios  and maybe just maybe the Thais will get it,

I agree 100% it's about the principle. These Pr1X think they are entitled to rip off Farang. Even for 1 Satang this is worth exposing.

The only slight problem with the above statement is, Thais will NEVER get it 

My money is on the Thai Guy being full of 5#1T

Ah yes, that reminds me when I took the pledge at my confirmation, all of 12 years old, didn't work out either.

And at 12 you already have a far superior mental capacity then this lot.

Put your hands up who knows when a Thai is lying.

Correct, when their lips are moving, and when they put their hands up 

To find a "Leader" in this place is the real challenge

Good  job lads, thanks for making the  roads  just a bit safer by paying the ultimate price.

Yep, zero sympathy - just relieved they didn't take anyone innocent with them

People need to learn what a proper following distance is.  Especially is this true if one is traveling in a less-protected vehicle and stands to be more seriously harmed by a collision, or a commercial vehicle that endangers others more.  The speed is really not the issue--the management of that speed is.  If one has poor reflexes, he or she should increase the following distance accordingly--and be extra wary of unexpected maneuverings from others on the road.  No one should take their cue from others.  For myself, a lifetime abstainer from alcohol with some of the fastest reflexes around, my following distance can sometimes be less than others would need for safe stopping.  Each individual needs to know his or her own competence, and manage his or her driving habits accordingly.

 

That said, it would be nice to see fewer "murdercycles/suicycles" on the road.  They really are dangerously risky modes of transportation.

You have this interesting notion of Learning (which you are 100% correct) yet you use this concept within the context of the indigenous vehicle operators??? Very interesting

I have to agree.

But being on complete lock-down because of every other idiot for over a week before it is not. Pattaya is a "Big Joke" this time of year. Oh wait, I thought he was policing BKK yesterday 

This entire place is a "Big Joke"
