Definitely not. They are frogs.

Speeding Fine M7 Chonburi
josephbloggs replied to keithsimmonds's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Mine always come to my work, even though the car is registered at my home address and the work permit I supplied when I bought it is a digital work permit which doesn't include a company address. No idea either why or how that happens. -

Really? Which part of this is a question? "The gantries show speed limits, they don't show the speed of your vehicle as it passes!" -
Would you come back to let us know how they are after you receive them? I'm also looking for super high quality hotel style towels but too wary of ordering online as I can't pick them up, feel them etc. Especially considering that company has not received a single review. Would be great to know if you're happy with them.

So you know several people who have had accidents that weren't their fault and they were told that because the accident would not have happened had they not been in Thailand then it was therefore their fault? Really?? Sorry I do not believe you. Please post details and what was said. I have personal first hand experience of the police taking my side when a Thai tried to blame me for an accident that wasn't my fault. Thonglor police too!

Front airbags won't go off for a rear collusion unless extremely severe. A number of years ago I was driving a brand new car (a beloved Subaru Impreza WRX), red plates, only had it a week. Sat in the right hand lane waiting to turn right in to my condo when I was absolutely smashed from behind at high speed by a pick up truck. Sent me several metres up the road, span me 180 degrees and completely crushed the back of my car. The CD in my CD player ended up on the back seat, the tins of tomatoes I had bought and put in a shopping bag behind the driver's seat were completely crushed. Luckily I wasn't hurt. It took six months to repair the car (can't believe they didn't write it off). My airbags did not deploy. I didn't hit the steering wheel so they clearly weren't needed and when I asked about this I was told they were designed not to go off if rear collision unless it is super severe and there's a good reason. Let's say they did go off but the collision had sent me into the oncoming traffic and I was then hit head on by another car - I'd be dead as there would be no airbags, so that is part of the logic when hit from the rear. So they are very intelligently designed. The guy who hit me was blind drunk by the way, tried to blame me saying I had no lights on and wasn't indicating (it was at night - I did have lights on and I always indicate). I also had red plates and you are not supposed to drive with red plates at night, but the police completely took my side.........just a little anecdote for the "they'll always take the side of the Thai" brigade.

Where do you get your information from? Fox News I guess? So any Russian hit by these (hypocritical) sanctions is a luxury tourist with an umbrella in their drink??? Not sure what you have against umbrellas but Russian citizens are being affected all across the globe for something they have no part in.

One of the best things about the UK in my opinion - the variety of cultures and people that are part of our society. I haven't lived there for a long time but used to live in a Turkish area of London: Turkish supermarkets, restaurants, takeaways, coffee shops, barbers. All great people. Similarly in the Greek areas, Indian areas, Chinese areas, Caribbean areas etc. Sadly the UK is becoming less tolerant and more racist thanks to Boris and co, Farage, Brexit. But the diversity of the UK is what makes it so special.
