Popular Post saigonsunset Posted March 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2018 Amazing to watch! Regardless of who is to blame in each scene it seems that each and every one of them could have been easily avoided if just one party had paid any attention to what is happening around them. No Attention, no foresight and sadly zero skills in driving a vehicle. The only thing thatwill ever stop this is education, eduction, eduction! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anon789561 Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Thats bloody terrible and the guy who smashed the car windscreen and went hopping away, well, that's an advert to always wear a decent helmet because if he wasn't, he'd be hopping no where for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mercman24 Posted March 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2018 ok i will tell you my secret, then i will have to kill you, he he, and it is -- i always wait for a few Thais to go first, you know how it is you pull up at what you think is the front of the traffic, no its not, as half a dozen will pull in front of you, i let them go, hey presto the junction is clear, oh maybe a few bodies strewn here and there but you are safe from the ensuing carnage 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pack of buffaloes would have more road sense. speeding - ignoring traffic lights - using mobile devices and just blatant stupidity, all breaking the law at will because there is no law enforcement, the police believe their job is to clean up the carnage after it happens and charge people ..................... prevention (is there even a Thai word) and proactive law enforcement.........before it happens, simple concept - why don't they get it ? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 As if I needed more encouragement . . . I moved back to Pattaya in early January from Vietnam. Rented a moto three times. I have many years of riding here, Cambodia and VN, but the Pattaya traffic is now even more chaotic with all the heavy buses, stark displays of ineptitude by the locals and even more numerous inexpert, overreaching foreigners riding motos -- the latter almost comedic in their lack of experience and skills if weren't for the drastic consequences. I won't be renewing my 5-year licence next month, because it seems to me that an accident is a matter of when, not if. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giddyup Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I have two falang neighbours who have both suffered serious accidents.

A Scandinavian friend told me the sad story of two of his friends. While waiting at a red light, a car plowed into them from behind. One was killed and the other had catastrophic injuries. I don't doubt there are many such stories of foreigners being killed or severely injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point in showing it on tv, it will only be entertainment for them, to laugh at there fellow citizens, bad luck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only thing that matters is, money, so hit them hard in the pocket and you will get there attention. Remember Money Number One. in Thailand.

KhunBENQ Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 (edited) I cant't laugh about this slaughterhouse. My estimate for brain dead ratio is 75% motorcycle riders vs. 25% four wheelers. Some scenes are simply unbelievable. What I learned quickly here: don't be first at the light, take extreme caution at any turn. The rest is bad fortune (brain dead driver plowing in from behind etc.). Be sober, avoid night drives when possible.

Popular Post 1happykamper Posted March 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2018 I watched this video several times. How about the mbike that hits the BIG bus right in the centre?

And Thailand is hosting a Motogp Grand Prix later this year .!.! Yes cant wait for it i've already booked my hotel in Buriram. So whats the problem with that, there are no Thais in the race and no traffic light junctions either no idiots in these races 5555. I don't have any pity for these people in the accidents if they don't care about there own lives then why should I they want to take the risks then pay the consequences at least they wont be a danger to other innocent people on the roads. I see many falangs driving in the same way as Thais, and sometimes I shout out of the car window at them "DRIVE LIKE A THAI DIE LIKE A THAI" For example the falang that gets hits by a car at the crossing he has got a big bike showing off wants to be first, the car that hit him was in the wrong going threw red lights, but if he would have set off more steady knowing that here you have to be very careful at any crossroads he wouldn't of got hit.

Popular Post TallGuyJohninBKK Posted March 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2018 Better than showing the video on Thai TV, which would be kind of pointless, it OUGHT to be shown prior to landing on EVERY incoming international flight. Doing that MIGHT save some lives... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
