Judum

Was trying to compare the mentality of the people but lots people dont know how to cross safely without intimidating that's all respect wise people here piss all over the people there , no more comparisons you bought this up not me

I think the taxi either just picked someone up and buy lookifbrwsr view mirror and the victim probably walked across without due care and attention or maybe even ran across lokkog at his trainers probably did but still no excuse from the driver striking some warrants a stop on a crossing or not

Talking about hospital I just paid 3000baht in hospital In over 3 daya was training to do 100 pushup in a day I normally only do 30 not very fit , any way I did not have insurance but even if I did I would have pay excess first , what is the best way to get insurance from abroad when booking or get from Thailand on arrival the thing about getting from abroad will they accept it if needed to claim

Does anyone know where the foreign national was from the pedestrian who was struck

So true lol every word

In uk you don't have to stop if someone's waiting ,also for instance a bus Is coming along and a pedestrian chose to cross without warning or waiting the bus has to harsh break ckuks hurt passengers, you don't have to stop at all pedestrians who think otherwise are rude and don't give a damn when growing up was always taught wait at zebra crossing toll cars vans,stop for you if you decide to cross the road forcing vehicles to stop you should be arrested but can't be jailed as the uk is so screwed there is no more room if you Google uk laws for zebra there it's say don't have to stop ie link

I live in England I suppose depends what part of uk you live but I feel safer in Thailand always have done apart from being scratched by lady boys no priblems

So true we'll done but I would say UK needs to pass a law for citizens who create crashes accidents via carelessly not give a damn a d just stepping out and arguing, but here they will soon do something about it

I think they might of done really can't remember strange I drove my own car there was not with driving school I'm surprised can't remember I was really happy got my Thai drivers licence so could be legally legal in all manners

I passed my test in 2005 in Thailand chonburi, I'm sure they took Me out on the road , 50 50 sure, but motorbikes no just stayed on premises

Only if it's a question to pass the test online in test centre zebra crossing are few and far between so to go past one on a driving test would be unlucky

I've often thought about all the things you say , my conclusion is they are not afraid to die as rebirth seems a good idea

Tbh and unbiased without a forward facing camera in car that's recording if pedestrians were at fault you would be <deleted>

Phones are the new drug everyone's at it even driving super dangerous while operating anytime of moving vehicles

Only if started to cross Already

Not by law but to be courteous yes

Sadly that's gon a be so biased against you, but maybe not depends on how your luck is it maybe 80 % against though , hitting a thai is highly probable a motor cyclists forget to turn off indicator, I've.been a driver for 45 years cars bikes motorcycle vans pcv etc so I always use my common sence ,

That's why pedestrians infact everyone should be vigilant at zebra crossings but if common sence for yourself worth and not demand your pedestrian right you be on , downside is you may wait a long while , just read a comment about driver putting his hazard light on at zebra crossings it's good but have to worry about people think tour broken down and attempting to over take, I told my nephew of someone flashes you in a cat it mean don't cross or pull out, that rules is silly and needs to be changed to , flash equals I acknowledge you so cross or pullout clears any doubts

The police will catch the drive if not already can't imagine how many CCTv cameras there

Hopefully common sence as pedestrians amd cyclists should avoid accidents, I drive in lo London and will say the cyclists there are just asking to be knocked off their bikes to much right s leads to early death especially if a cyclist has right of way but driver ignores it the cyclists get hurt , I'd rather wait then get hit , I see a video a man clipped a coach that was travelling to close to him the cyclist got run over and body split in two , this is the videos should be shown to all sides about danger faced by all road users had the cyclist held back guess what would of happened, being clever means avoid being hurt and hurting others

Yes it is even though they are a pretty much caring society,80,% drivers don't care I think you got more chance of crossing the road away from a zebra and just putting your hand up as a gesture to thank the driver but obviously do that when the vehicle is far away not 5 feet away, if thailand put speed camers up at traffic lights and pedestrian crossing they make a lot of honest money and protect society from careless driving and protect drivers from careless society

Maybe maybe not I did mention about England so maybe you a clue but had the pedestrian waited for the vehicle to stop it would of meant a lot of pain involved not happening in the 1st place, when ever I travel my common sence always comes with me

Feel very sorry for the pedestrian involved and driver should be jailed without a doubt and pay compensation for the man's emotional loss and pain , I'm a driver myself and like to remind citizens that you cross the road when the vehicle stops for you, otherwise this happens pedestrians have right of way when on the crossing, in uk some crazy laws came about where citizens think they are superman or woman forcing drivers to stop even buses they need to be educated pedestrians need to be educated again or should not be so disrespectful by forcing drivers to stop

I'm jibbing so people make the effort comments Like mine supposed to get brain ticking over rather then just being lazy my way spelt wrong or right will definitely get your brain cells going it's called a small tip of the day, rather then walking mindlessly maybe can find a thing or 2 on the way .. did it offend you ,? I'm sorry but as I said it's a 2 bobs worth of education of permissions granted and as.admin did allow it , it can't be all bad 5555 mai ??

God bless you sir common sense still prevails and if you're atheist may you still be bless by something lol 😆 any way when I read this incident amd was thinking about common sence and came across your comment had to thank you
