  1. What? What have those two "statistics" got to do with each other - or this thread? The likelihood of being killed in a car accident in the US is statistically ("50%") greater than what?
  2. Nonsense. When the (expressway?) traffic is so heavy that using that lane is deemed a necessity by the police, by definition, traffic cannot "speed down the emergency lane".
  3. "...a direct result of having no police force..." A direct result of having no adequately-financed police force.
  4. He's half Thai, so not a Falang. He wasn't a rider, either, as scubascuba3 seemed to think, he was one of those in a car!
  5. I don't know, maybe active enforcement, that way we don't see illegal stop-sign/redlight runners happening every few minutes. The charging of the rider in the OP-reported incident by was active law enforcement. He was charged while thousands of road users who did not commit that offence were, obviously, not charged.
  6. Nighttime communal cell accommodation is cleaned to that standard every morning by nominated occupants of those cells for inspection prior to being let out for the day after roll call in Klong Prem, and probably most other prisons.
  7. Only after it's too late, and someone is hurt, killed, or maimed. What other way can the law be enforced? Until there is an offence there can be no enforcement of that law unless the police have crystal balls and can see future events happening.
  8. Took down a sign post. "The impact caused the cyclist to be thrown into a signpost... Authorities also reported ... a streetlight pole that was knocked down during the incident".
  9. They do...that the rider is being prosecuted means that they are enforcing traffic laws. WRONG...... 'they' [the police] are not 'enforcing traffic laws'... they are penalising those unfortunate enough to have been involved in an incident when habitually breaking traffic laws... That is called enforcing the law!
  10. "You owe me £30k for that consultancy work". "Ok, I'll pay you, come and get it". That's what I mean by a private arrangement, as opposed to legal enforcement.
  11. They do...that the rider is being prosecuted means that they are enforcing traffic laws.
  12. I asked AI, here is the summary. To make it easy I called the people Linda and Somchai: To make it easier and relevant why didn't you ask AI the right question? There was no indication that the debt collection was anything but a private arrangement of the British woman asking the Thai man for settlement. Your AI "answer" is referring to legal processes and court actions between the two countries which were not reported in the OP.
  13. Anyone can go to any country to try collect what is owed to them by any other individual. Why wouldn't they be able to do that?
  14. You think it's not good? Better to ask the community to pay? I don't think that it is good, neither do I think that it is not a good thing, I am not being made to contribute, neither are you, neither is "the commnity", only those who want to go to a GFM page have to go there.
  15. With a discrete, separate bog no less 555 En suite.
  16. Niaive in the extreme to expect that lazy bunch of leeches troughing off the taxpayer to do anything. Does She not know there a far more pressing matters, such as what putter to use on the eighth hole.... What do you expect Embassy staff to do for her?
  17. I avoid them, and I've only seen them a few times, most people have moved on from these. Most people aren't inmates in places where those facilities are perfectly normal.
  18. "Thailand is all about money"...gawd, same old lame, hackneyed BS. Any reason why the Thai victim should not be properly compensated?
  19. I'm not sure what this has to do with my comment. The connection between your post and my comment is obvious if you read them again.
