JSixpack Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 But you were one of our Tunnel Flooders. Nor have you answered the roll call. Why not? So now we know that you did survive the disappointment, DD13, while not owning up to any foolishness. Glad you're at least finding comfort in some THAI behavior contrary to some rules--in connection with the underpass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all the inconvenience the construction caused I have to say the underpass does work well Sadly.... I guess it's only a matter of time before a fatality happens But with these Thai m/c jerks already abusing the rules, it won't take long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digbeth Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 A guy on motorcycle has already been killed on top of the tunnel trying to go straight on the right lanes that turn right into Klang, hit the kerb and into the traffic lamp post, and the next day after that a similar crash by speeding youths late at night hit the same spot, not dead unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotpoom Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 "who obviously don't give a "toss" for their country nor its laws "Beam me up Scotty" I suppose you could say the same for everyone who breaks the law from.... spitting on the road all the way up to murder"....world wide?

Teenage males do reckless things everywhere in the world. Some of them get away with it. Some suffer the consequences. As annoying as they may be, to wish that they would die doesn't demonstrate the moral, mature high ground that you apparently think you possess.

I'm fairly fit but even I couldn't run 6,000 miles so I flew here ?

Why do you think Thailand now tops the rankings as the country with the highest death rate in road accidents... Have to say no one has ever personally sued the manufactures of those lucky amulets that are supposed to protect the wearer from death.

jacko45k Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 (edited) Get real, it is a country full of scofflaws with an ineffective police force. They were on duty for a spell after the tunnel first opened, I even went through myself once on the bike just after it opened, as I didn't know not to, and the sign was in Thai at the time. That also applies to the railway line bypass, many try to go down it the wrong way from being too lazy and stupid to drive further on and U-Turn or not knowing it is a dual carriageway (there aren't any no entry or one way signs along it's entire length and there are old lane marking arrows suggesting it could be 2 way.) Avoiding 2 sets of traffic lights where all shade has been obliterated makes sense to a guy on a bike.
