  1. I get a kick out of people with rose-colored glasses.
  2. I'm assuming the fingerprint scanners for travelers in/out isn't hooked up to an international system? You would think soon as she entered Thailand that a red flag would go up, and she would be sent back to China for arrest.
  3. Thailand needs a professional police force that actually enforces the laws, I've noticed over the last 8 years, especially after the pandemic, that the drivers are getting much worse. One thing that's getting scary is the doubling down of stupid, I have had people almost create accidents while they are breaking the road laws/rules and then getting into an argument because they feel they are right (road rage). I don't even think Thai's understand that they do indeed have road rules/laws on the books, and they seem to be completely ignorant of what those laws are, I mean, did they ever read them?! Nothing scares me more than an entire society of ignorant drivers.
  4. If it sounds to good to be true..... I guess a sucker really is born every minute.
  5. All I want to know is, did they check him for unusual wealth first?
  6. Yeah, I'd like to see them removed, let leaders say what they really mean, not what was written by someone else.
  7. I have seen these on some roads that have no business being 120kmh, just increasing the carnage potential I guess.
  8. It says he was riding with friends, my guess is he was following the leader, thus making a last second maneuver to enter that U-Turn exit. He forgot the golden rule, Ride your own ride!
  9. Main reason why we made our daughter take swimming lessons at an early age, since this is the number one cause of child deaths in Thailand.
  10. So she has a direct link to Papa from wherever she is? Well, that's convenient, he can even control her speeches now. Daddy thought of everything! 😉
  11. I knew I saw these cars before, that's Joe Ferrari's collection! 😉
  12. Would B1.21 million be enough to have a certain bus company owner strapped to a gas cylinder before detonating?
  13. Safety is the last thing on a Thai's mind, look at the carnage and stupidity displayed daily on the roads, sidewalks, and Zebra crossings. The first step is for Thai people to look in the mirror, and visually see who is creating the safety hazards in Thailand, soon as they do that we can start to address the problems.
  14. Then we are doomed before we start.
  15. I see it here daily, in fact constantly, which is why I think Thai people are suicidal. It's the first thing foreign drivers need to learn before driving here in Thailand, Thai's will do things no other reasonable driver would ever think of doing. Formal training and testing would probably fix that, but seeing the current and ridiculous LTD parking lot test, they seem to be more interested in adding more dead bodies to statistics.
  16. Just look around, there are plenty of people gimping around with mangled feet and hands, and other debilitating injuries. I am pretty sure most of those are from motorcycle accidents, which is why before I sold the Big Bike, I stuck to ATGATT (All The Gear All The Time)
  17. If so, then it appears he did like Thai's usually do, an tried to cut over the hash marked area at the last second. Solid lines and hash marks are there for a reason, lesson learned.
  18. Since the pole was mounted on top of a raised and marked curb, the outcome more than likely be the same.
  19. Wet, highspeed, and what was probably an Oh-Sh*t moment application of brakes when he saw the sign coming up fast.
  20. Unless you are an alcoholic, I think you can wait until your plane ride is over.
  21. I see this regularly, same thing at STOP signs, pull out in front of oncoming traffic? Not to mention, soon as one person leaves the STOP sign (that's if they stopped at all), everyone does, I wonder if they realize every car has to stop at the STOP sign.
