Dont waste your money they have no chance, 

There is so many taxi app's here in Phuket, no need to get a taxi, 

There is already a shortage of hotel staff, so they need them and Thais dotn want to work in the kitchens or cleaning rooms, A friend of mine has two trendy restaurants he's paying a good daily wage, he cant get staff,

36 yo Russian on the R1 showing out to his 18 yo Thai cutie, plows into Swede and his Thai wife at top speed. That's the summary as I gather. Tragic and undoubtably avoidable. Stupidity, speed, poor lighting (which is everywhere in Thai at night), slick asphalt roads... a receipt for disaster. Not that it would have mattered much, but I assume not a hemet a worn by anyone. 

That road is well lit, 4 lanes wide with a dual carriage way plus the hard shoulder, plenty of room for both of them, 

They are all over the Burmese like a rash,

Here on the islands we get big bikers in groups of 20 or more coming over from the mainland for weekends I’ve never heard about any of them being stopped or searched but there again the majority are Thai !

I saw 6 the other day going down the tunnel at Chalong

PHUKET: A 25-year-old Russian man died when the motorbike he was riding struck a house wall in Baan Don, Tambon Thepkrasattri, last night (Mar 24).

I forgot to mention, Confiscate the bikes,

I live in Phuket and see these out of control Big Bikers every day.  Completely surprised that I don't see at least one bad accident a day.  My fear is one of these idiots will take out an innocent Thai family on a small bike. I wish they would at least crack down on the Big Bikes.  It's a real problem.

It has happened about 500 meters back from this accident, some farang wiped out a husband and wife and she was pregnant, the farang died also, riding a Ducati,  

There has been many deaths along that stretch of road late at night, around the same time also, 

Hymie, sorry about the fire, shut up it's not until next week

Yes agree, but at least they are taking responsibility for their actions.

 

I do the same when attending functions or a night out in Pattaya, cheaper and easier to book a hotel. I know a few local taxis that would be cheaper, but it is far simpler to use a hotel, no stress and no hassle.

Many years ago I would also book a hotel, I live in Rawai go have a night out in Patong easier all round and safer, 

There is no excuse these days there is loads of taxi apps, If I want to go for a drink my wife takes me, 

If it was ISIS who is backing them? 

It's not only farangs who get stopped, a friend of mine who is Thai got stopped in Chalong one night, he got locked up for the night the following day in court 5000 baht fine, 

So the A/C is ok?
