it is what it is

agree, people need to wise up. been here donkeys years, managed to go about my life without doing anything that is fineable and have never been asked to pay a fine. it's not difficult.

They had not changed their chargers either what are they talking about?!

“Visit Thailand Year: Amazing New Chapters” should really have given 'Amazing Thailand' one more run round the block.

depends how highly you value human life i guess.

He called the showroom who said to let it cool down a bit then restart. ????

why haven't you made sure she's been properly taught then? surely a wise move for her, your and other road users safety...

in some situations i ask, but sometimes there just isn't the opportunity to ask, you see the shot and take it...

move. it can't be the only quiet place.

yes, easy to find a booster. as your gf is thai should be fairly easy for her to sort it out. all my thai friends seem to be able to do so without having to ask me... ????

just reminded me i was traveling in the early 2000s, laos had been given some inner city buses by a western donor country and were using these buses for long distance travel, not comfortable. even earlier in the 1990s i visited and traveled by boat, before they had tourist boats, sharing the boat with locals transporting their goods and even livestock to market. those were the days... as you say, beautiful country and i love luang prebang.

nonsense. many (non sex industry) girls who want to meet a western man for a one night stand or a relationship go to tourist areas because that's where the guys are. admittedly, this was more the case prior to smart phones/internet dating, but still holds good now. i know because i've met countless such girls. it's very very easy to meet and have a relationship with a non bar girl.

idiot

only if you have the relevant skill and experience, i've driven off road in northern thailand and the driving conditions can be very challenging

na, obsessed with being irish. met and traveled with an all american guy, surname vogel, clearly germanic, however never stopped banging on that he was irish. apart from that he was a decent guy..

he really should have had some form of safety warning; cones or a watcher the driver was probably looking at the barrier and missed him as he was low down. however, she was not moving quickly and could surely have stopped at the initial impact, injuring him probably, but to continue driving is obviously going to cause him more injury, so... why not stop?

there speaks the uninformed. clearly you have never been to china, or you have had a very limited experience of the country.

haha, i was sure it was going to be a car or truck, maybe i've been here too long...

not normal for thai boys generally. but sadly, for years vocational college students have been fighting with each other. college and police authorities should have dealt with this issue years ago.

blue line takes you right there, just walk upstairs. 'close' is inaccurate reporting by the writer of the original piece.

whilst i far from condone his/her behaviour, it's hardly a deportation offense.

good news, but tbh many organisations and businesses have been moving to wood and paper based options for a couple of years

and...?

any excuse for a thai bash... road rage happens in every country for gun rage just read about the gun related incidents in the usa it's human nature, some people can control their emotions, some can't.

simply not true. i've had two large payouts from insurance companies (in excess of 50k) in the past, both times the insurance company/loss adjuster were helpful and professional, payout was efficient, prompt and in full.

no, the policy was not worthless, and thai insurance is not worthless, the insured was engaged in an activity that was not covered by the policy. understand?! ????
