  1. How about Thai locals who openly defy local laws, are they exempt? Because they do so way more often then anyone else, and nothing is being done to correct this behavior. I beg to differ, he is anything but, more like another over paid stooge.
  2. Its not "luck", its a safety device, as soon as Thai's drop the superstitious nonsense the better.
  3. Always wondered "What if?" when taking my shoes off at temples with thousands of others, so far so good.
  4. Spread among the men in brown, for all their hard work in rooting out this criminal enterprise. Good thing their suspect/defendant is dead and can't defend herself.
  5. Yes, invest in Thailand, your money is safe ...Not.
  6. Good thing there are laws against it, and dashcams to protect us from financial ruin. We are living amongst barbarians, they lack common sense and critical thinking skills.
  7. Should we have all the children hide under their school desks again, and start a new underground bunker building enterprise?
  8. More like the RTP benevolent fund, a new Joe Ferrari is in the wings salivating.
  9. Many roundabouts here, but Thai's would be better off with intersections and traffic control lights, because from what I see daily here, they haven't the foggiest idea how to use them.
  10. Possible, if he damaged the steering, would be nice to see the pothole though. Wish the previous 30 seconds was on the video. Would take quite a pothole to damage the steering.
  11. To me it just looks like a typical highspeed death wobble. You can also hear him revving the hell out of it while the steering does the death wobble in the video.
  12. Yes, indicator on. Who wouldn't put one on to turn right? Not sure what you're saying in your second paragraph.
  13. If that were the case, they would be millionaires by now, I could write a million baht in fines every day within a 1-2km area around my house.
  14. I am pretty confident in saying the reason people buy Fortuna's and Everest's is because they want to fly over speed bumps at Mach1.
  15. Yeah, its definitely better with lots of dead people due to nationwide ignorance.
  16. It got out of hand here, they are now trying to put a stop to it, it appears Thai's don't know (or care) that RED and WHITE striped curbs mean no parking. They even put RED and WHITE striped poles every few feet on the corners to discourage parking there, what do you think happened next? The motorcycles decided to park there sticking out into the roadway, it appears they thought it was motorcycle only parking...SMH. Now they got RED and WHITE striped tape between the poles, I saw some of the tape cut and a few motorcycles parked there. It's just nuts the level of stupidity or ignorance on display here every day.
  17. No, read carefully, compression is important!
  18. One thing I learned though, is when we've gone to the police after an accident, they do indeed follow the law when it comes to responsibility. They just refuse to go out an enforce compliance on a daily basis, thus we have a society of drivers who are ignorant of the laws and rules of their own country.
  19. It's completely illegal, you can't overtake any vehicle within 30 meters of a junction (same for Zebra crossings). Dashcams (front/back) are your friend, they can't escape responsibility if they choose to drive like idiots and cause crashes.
  20. I have made some headway, I bitched enough to my daughters school, that they have now got guards keeping children safe in at least the two nearest Zebra crossings to the school. Also, stopped any U-Turning during dropoff and pickup, plus cones all the way down the yellow centerline. They have also started attacking illegal parking, which was way out of control and causing bigger headaches for safety near the school.
  21. Anyone making investments anywhere in Thailand must be out of their minds, you'd have better luck playing Russian Roulette.
  22. We just need a proper police force, the laws are on the books (Thailand Traffic Act), they just need to be enforced.
  23. Just noticed your screen name, most ironic name I have seen on here yet. I want change, I want police to enforce THAI LAWS! I want a safe place to drive, walk, and use a Zebra crossing. Driving styles? You mean the like the idiot in my video driving on the wrong side of the road? He should have his licensed taken away, along with anyone else driving recklessly.
