    I often read the comment that the bikes get into the lorry drivers 'blind spot'... that as maybe but motorcycles try to pass or are riding on the inside of a lorry, and the lorry wants to move or turn left. These days lorries should not have these blind spots, and if they are such a danger to other road users they need to be more restricted. Now I got them on the Railway line bypass, added to Bangkok mini-bus/vans driving recklessly and too fast there, avoiding work on Sukhumvit... certainly need to be careful on my small motorcycle. 

    Yes, be careful and not ride with your head up your ass,they cant wait, have to be at the front of  queen cant wait a second, desperate to get to the after life, idiots beyond belief.

  2. 15-17 year  olds, these are the future of Thailand, and there parents will show little or no remorse whilst they drive to work in there debt riden D Max, I put the problems Thailand has with parenting, my neighbour has a 31 year old daughter, who has had 4 jobs in her working life the longest lasting 3 weeks, drives about in her car all hours of the day and night and throws a tantrum when she wants something and the parents haven't the money to pay for it, the girl is a self confessed hi-so with no means if support other than her parents.

    BB, big boss has billions, BJ only millions,$of course. 

    Millions in Baht any mid-level cop can acquire. Very little through official salary. 

    Is that enough to stay out of prison?

    A lot has to do with the power within the top brass and "friends" in high places in government. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

    Nothing to see, all over except for the 6 months of 🐂 Shiite

    While public urination is certainly frowned upon, where the ire of the people should be directed is towards Sretta, the PT and Thaksin, for metaphorically urinating all over the Thai people by blatantly stealing an election. And then pretending that it's a democracy. 

    spidermike007 you have a most direct way if hitting the nail square on, but I feel this wonderfully put analogy will go over 50 million natives heads.

    Exactly, the police summons are optional. So why were the security guards at the estate threatened with arrest for not letting the police onto private property?

     

    Also an arrest warrant can only be issued by a court. "Will be issued" is not up to the chief of police. They can request a warrant. They can't issue them.

    I think if the. Police chief wants one. Issued it will be issued, this is Los

    Well iof the TN were not so incapable they would not have lost a frigate in hugh seas, or even tried to blow one up with a stray shell from another ship. So theu have proven themselves incompetent, a fleet of smaller offshore patrol boats would be better suited in my book

    ur 

    Yes offshore high speed patrol boats, where would the submarine patrol, they do know I presume it goes under the water,

    It is actually very similar. Offend someone, have a conflict of any sort, business or domestic, and it's High Noon and a shootout on Main Street. The social class structure also belongs back in those ancient days, where you have the unassailable lords of the manor at the top who people have to bow down to and respect no matter what. Or pretend to.

     

    Much of Thai culture is centuries behind the West. It's interesting how some countries develop so much slower than others. At the same time, I have little doubt that some Western countries are now in reverse. Decades of cutbacks (I'm from the UK, where when I was a kid I could see a doctor within an hour or two, and now it might take days or weeks), more and more violence, more and more plain stupidity.

    Agreed
