Electric Vehicles in Thailand
for the average ev driver, charging speed isn't the main thing. other factors matter more! most owners usually just charge at home anyway ... and don't go on a road trip every week ... last week i took my ls7 awd on a 4-day road trip (1'921km) deep into isaan. charging was no problem at all, and with a real range of around 500 km, it was another easy, comfy, and relaxing trip. the ls7 is perfect for that, even with four people and a lot of luggage ...

Friend bought land - is now being taken to court for seller's debts
if the land purchase and the deed transfer were done at the land office, and there was no mortgage to pay off beforehand and no entries on the back of the chanote, then everything is legal ... it looks more like someone is trying to use intimidation tactics. depending on how it goes, your friend could report them to the police for harassment and coercion ...

you call it flawed methodology? i call it an easy way to avoid a dangerous and frequent cause of rear-end collisions!!!

to measure the two-second rule, pick a stationary object (like a sign or a tree) and ensure that at least two seconds pass from the moment the car ahead passes it until your own vehicle reaches the same spot ... very simple ... and in rainy or difficult conditions, use the 4 second rule!

the following distance in meters for the 2-second rule depends on the vehicle's speed. at 50 km/h, you should maintain a gap of 27.78 m ... this corresponds to approximately 6 car lengths! at 100 km/h, the gap increases to 55.56 m ... this corresponds to approximately 12 car lengths! at 120 km/h, it reaches 66.67 m ... this corresponds to approximately 15 car lengths!

tailgating is when a driver follows another vehicle too closely and doesn't leave enough room to stop safely if the car in front hits the brakes ... my simple rule: stay at least 2 seconds behind!

One for our American friends.
it is important to me that i can make my own decisions while driving so i can arrive safely. this includes my speed, overtaking, my driving style, looking ahead, and reacting early to dangers. these points, plus a bit of luck in some situations, help me drive over 40 years without any accidents in many different countries and continents ... however, tailgating here in thailand puts me in a situation where i feel like "coercion" to me and where i and my family are "forced" into unnecessary danger cause of a brainless idiot tailgating us! when it is possible, i pull over to the side and let the reckless tailgater pass ...

BYD Seal tips, tricks and help
@Pib thank you very much for your detailed explanation und your experiance about the consumption data ... it is a pity that byd does not provide more precise data regarding consumption, like many other ev manufacturers do. even i'm really happy with my sealion 7, i'd rate byd's software as "modest." i wonder why the world's largest bev manufacturer doesn't offer its customers a modern and high-quality software solution ...

BYD Seal tips, tricks and help
i just had the one-year service done on my sealion 7 awd. everything is fine, but i am confused about the consumption data: - my car trip computer shows 15.6 kwh/100km over 18,000 km (is this exclude extras like air conditioning???). - the service report lists "accumulated charge energy" of 4,173 kwh (does that include regeneration?), which equals 23.18 kwh/100km!?!? - my own excel sheet shows that i charged a total of 3,412 kwh (this is including charging losses etc ), which equals 19.00 kwh/100km! i trust my own records (with charging losses but without regeneration) the most! have any of you also received such contradictory consumption values for your byd?
