  1. Signs are only signs... , sometimes they appear suddenly at roadworks, nothing before, sometimes only in Thai ,sometimes incorrect about km distances, sometimes nothing a foreigner can read and nobody who can help them because almost nobody talks any English...This is Thailand and its tourism... The most signs for roads are ok as the picture shows,
  2. That is no news... everybody knows that already since the last elections....
  3. My parents had brains, maybe these have money but no brains I don't no which is worse.. I am wondering what would happen if their boy died.... A big funeral, but all their money could not compensate that loss.... Although I am wondering if parents in Thailand know what love their children means
  4. 16 year old and driving a Mercedes... I think I miss something, but I have a normal brain... In my country my parents bought me a second hand car when I passed for my drivers license, because it is common to learn to drive first when you are passed. Small mistakes but damages on the car is normal... Here apparently somebody with a high position can drive as a 16 year old a Mercedes.... Not even a drivers license needed and no parental guidance...Happily nobody injured of even death.... but who cares about that in Thailand a wai, a few thousand baht and live goes on
  5. Only allowed for zThais driving without an helmet and without a valid driverslicense... Foreigners have to pay
  6. In The Netherlands the police is even coming at night to wake you up to pay the fines...
  7. No wonder there are so may accidents... Thai laws are worthless... Don't pay fines and nothing will happen. Just continue living and in this case even worse the culprit get compensation for not paying fines and go to court ... a bonus and reward. And in the meantime again a blame for the RTP as they don't do their work properly... In my country if you don't pay your fine and at a checkpoint they see it that you have to pay you can pay first before you can drive on... and if don't pay within the normal period you get extra fines. NO court will agree with you if you can't pay your tax if you have fines to pay.. They will fine you even more with all extra costs for your account as it is your duty to pay in time...But this is Thailand the country with laws that are not enforced a RTP that is not working, and have no clue of laws and too lazy to lift their asses.. and a court that is not independent. Unless you are a foreigner..........than everything works very well and they will empty your wallet
  8. Schoolbus or cattle truck?? There is no safety in this kind of schoolbusses and kids are being exposed to danger, by truck and driver
  9. In 1 week they can't change the driving behavior of the uneducated drivers and incompetent RTP who don't know what and how to fine or punish them... The RTP is too busy on their cellphones and mostly check your tax payment, instead of alcohol check , blacksmoke, licenseplates, lights, or overloaded cars... Besides it should be done 365 days a year instead of only at the holiday season
  10. It is the same as last year, and the years before..... It is the same old song... and the results will be the same...
  11. If I read the headline I am wondering what is worse the accident, the injured or the damaged streetlights... I suppose it will be the last
  12. Happily for the kid she will be safe now, but it is only one victim out many others all over the country.. How often do we not read about this child abuse here on Asean news.. and than there are so many more who are not known
  13. Sudden hearing loss is no wonder.. If you hear the volume they use at parties, markets, temples, it is no wonder that there is a an ear damage, sometimes hundreds meters away from the party or temple venue you can hear the music and voices...No control of any decibel..So New Years Eve and New Years Parties the places to avoid if you love your hearing
  14. In Wisconsin a girl with 2 guns ....killed a student and a teacher.... Have merci with her if she gets the capital punishment?? Guilty no mercy.... How do you think the families of the victims will feel?? Lives ruined as long as they live... No mercy or excuses for this kind of behavior, although 15 year
  15. The result of outdated laws.... Groups of tourists will come and wnat to see and knows things about the attraction, however a tour guide is only allowed to do by a Thai... as so many other jobs.. And the Thais are not educated in English, Chinese Cantonese as Mandarin, of course some are good.. but all other languages are not possible....and are forbidden by the law.. If you wnat more visitors, they have to let the outdated law go and change ... enter the 21st century..
