And this actually surprises anyone? 

 

surely the  Thai traffic code does not provide for this kind of treatment.

These articles never surprise me any more.

The sheer number of accidents involving buses is incredible, and most, if not all, must have something to do with the driver's lack of ability to handle them.

as mentioned in my post it could be fatigue, drugs or plain negligence.

thank God it did not turn out to be too serious. it appears to be the driver's error of judgement based on the report. he should have regulated his speed while negotiating the curve. fatigue, drugs or plain negligence?

what an end. RIP poor soul.

This move must be the craziest move this government has made.    Everyone is pissed about this move except those who don't use this service because someone drive them where they want to go.

what about the congestions problems it causes. unfortunately there is some pain when a new idea is tried out but if the new idea is not working it should be given up.

that is the tragedy.  you must highlight the action taken against hooliganism and give them deterrent sentences.

I have left a number of bars because the music was TOO loud. I have never complained because it was not loud enough.

heard the saying to each his own. this is a personal choice and right, considering the right in relation to other guests of course.

It's not a nice place. I find the foreign bar owners to be more repulsive than the Thai ones. Go to a developing country to pimp local peasant women, can't get more despicable than that.

sorry to fail to see your point.

"....if she fell off she would be claiming compensation."

If she fell off, the police would be scraping her body parts off the road., and the driver that hit her would be claiming compensation for blood splatter all over the front of his car. 

how gory

cheap publicity stunt that can easily wrong and end in a disaster.

cutting travel time between the two cities by 2/3  will a between the two cities and auger well for for travellers. what would be the major reasons for this trip.

Just over 2 hours of watching Thais chunder in abject misery. My missus can get seasick just watching the TV.. God help anyone on a boat with her. The Gulf of Thailand is far from being a mill pond.

will depend on the size of the boat they use. naturally the larger boats will be more stable and less likely to cause to cause side effects.

integration is the way to go. they should also try to do the same for the MRT the BTS and bus services.

Thailand is the land where I never take anything literally, even if something seems obvious. The English guy could have simply been lost, saw a parked taxi, stopped his car, walked up to the front of the taxi in the hope of asking the driver for directions, saw the driver was not there and then went on his merry way.

thank you for making my day. nice joke. ha ha ha

Stealing from one of the most upstanding members of society. How low can you get?

 

why people are known to have stolen from very old infirm persons, children and even disabled people. the world is full of scum bags.

TIT.

if a thief got caught we should celebrate.

In addition to the theft, he should be charged for whatever that is that appears to be on his head.

whatever appears on his head is his personal right. that is no offence. the theft of course is unforgivable. he  must have know that there must be items of value in the vehicle. to steal the driver's licence is beyond any reasonable logic.
