  1. I hope so, a rear passenger is more likely to kill a front passenger wearing a seat belt in a head on smash,
  2. Madam puts hers on to shut the bells off and knows I'll go ballistic if she don't. I've taught the rear seat passengers to put there belts on by brake testing within 100 yards of starting off, a smack into a front seat and they soon get the idea.
  3. It wasn't a trick question, "Who do you think is responsible for your road safety?" yet you failed to answer it, except for more drivel about road safety and public health, whereas the simple answer is "YOU are firstly responsible for your own road safety by following the Countries rules". As for the rest of your diatribe, you have no idea of my driving abilities or attitude, but I will say this, I was a Professional Heavy Goods Vehicle Driver for 40 years, that never had an accident that was proven to be my fault, I averaged over 125,000 miles every year, all over Europe, Türkiye, Middle East, Pakistan and India. FYI, from Goggle: According to the most recent data collected by the World Health Organization to 2021, Thailand ranked 16th out of 175 countries in road fatalities per 100,000 population, at 25.4. That same year, the WHO recorded 18,218 road traffic deaths in the country, an average of 50 per day.
  4. Who do you think is responsible for your road safety?
  5. The average human can run 10 mph, go for a run and throw yourself on to the ground with ordinary everyday clothes on and no head protection, come back and tell me how much you enjoyed the fall. Every individual is responsible for their own safety, nobody else.
  6. The residence of Phichit gave a palpable sigh of relief, 😉😉
  7. I live on the borders of Phichit and Phitsanulok, lovely quiet backwater, nice people, easy going lifestyle, if you want Pattaya style entertainment good luck finding it. Great place to retire, if you're happy with what you've got, good road network to Bangkok, easy 4 hour drive, Mae Sot, 3 hours, Chiang Mai, about 5 hours. There is a ex-pat community that meets up on a regular basis, a few play golf.
