    Wonder what happened today...
     
    Will Vettel be packing his bags for this weekend?

    Apparently he apologised, signed up to promote road safety, and accepted full responsibility. So was let of further punishment. Feel free to try that in court if you end up on a dangerous driving charge. 555

    Italy pleads to EU for help with migrants, threatens to close ports

    in World News

    Posted

    Italy and the rest of Europe have to get their act together and send these refugees back home to the countries they are from.  Europe does not need any more refugees.  Italy and Greece do not need any more unemployable people who have got learn their languages before they can work either. Having immigrants who have worked hard, to legally go to Europe is enough strain on that country.  The EU better get their collective heads out of the sand and start helping out Europe.
    Geeze

    Just drop them back on the coast they left, where other would be immigrants are watching. See how quick the traffickers lose customers.

    Is anyone familiar with Ban Kliang? I'm looking for coordinates for Talad Hom. Or a place name on that road I can look up on a GPS. All I get for the area is Wat Nam Kliang, the school and health centre. TIA.

    Interesting chat between Paula and David Croft. I'm remembering last years race. Cars whizzing past and shoppers feet away. Should race tracks have to guarantee an audience at the track?

    Shock horror tactics employed to stop under fifteens driving to school on motorcycles

    in Thailand News

    The whole of the road carnage situation is down to the BiB's lack of presence on the roads. Because of this folk do what they like because there is virtually zero chance of being taken to task. I can't remember the last time I saw a traffic BiB where I live.
     
    Where I live when the school chucks out there is constant stream of under age kids on  scooters 3 up in fancy uniforms, no crash hats all racing each other, that's every day.
     
    When I was a kid back home we had a cop come to our school and lecture about being safe, and that was about crossing the road..Unfortunately in LOS there is a total "don't care" attitude to anything, which I find a bit puzzling...

    Plus monkey see monkey do. People see police breaking traffic laws, and think it's OK to do the same.

    Part of the solution is for schools to not allow students to drive motorcycles to school.   I have long wondered why they not only allow it, but provide parking for the students and don't even make a remedial effort to see that anybody either driving or riding a motorcycle has a helmet.  
     
    Last year we had two students at one of our schools get seriously injured, with one having brain damage as they rode out the school gate and were promptly smeared all over the pavement by a truck.   Still no effort to stop this insanity.  
     
    .....But God help any student who shows up with their uniform not quite up to scratch, or their hair too long, or their fingernails dirty.  
     
    It's all about priorities.  

    A mates ex a teacher told him she'd be late home as the police were coming to the school, and talk about the law. My mate says. "You mean like not letting kids drive motorbikes to school?"
    She gives the you're so stupid look.
    "How can they get to school? You so stupid".

    U.S. student who was returned from North Korea in coma has died

    We Yanks are still restricted from tourism to Cuba, but free to give N Korea our tourist dollars. Sad.

    However.

    Adult = read before you go

    The Department of State strongly warns U.S. citizens not to travel to North Korea/the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK). U.S. citizens in the DPRK are at serious risk of arrest and long-term detention under North Korea’s system of law enforcement. This system imposes unduly harsh sentences for actions that would not be considered crimes in the United States and threatens U.S. citizen detainees with being treated in accordance with “wartime law of the DPRK.” Since the United States does not maintain diplomatic or consular relations with North Korea, the U.S. government has no means to provide normal consular services to U.S. citizens in North Korea.

    Spanish bullfighter gored to death in French ring

    "...one of the greatest outcomes of a bullfight, when a matador really does his job, is when the bull is granted an “indulto”, the crowd is exposed to the skill and harmony of man and bull, respect shown on all sides.
    The indulto is requested by the public by waving handkerchiefs before the final act and must be approved by the president. If pardoned, the bull will be symbolically freed by the matador, which is a great honor. The bull will never fight again as no bull with any experience can ever be used more than once because they learn from experience and thus would be too dangerous. A five-star lifestyle awaits the honored bull thereafter."
