The Union Jack is a very cool Flag worldwide, Non Brits have it everywhere, Back Jeans pockets, Car Roofs, Wing Mirrors, Bedroom Wall, Car Bumpers, the List is endless, this example here means Jack Shoot.

I doubt that would have made the slightest difference. The Thais have absolutely no concept of distance, speed, space or proximity. Most of them are accidents in the making. And of course, when it comes down to it, the amulets trump all else. But we must never criticise religion its become non pc especially in the Islamic vein when in fact its sheer stupidity, "belief" in something, anything, without evidence, whole nations blindly adhere to and Thailand is not alone by any means.

aussie11950 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 It would be useful for someone to post the email address of some authority, that we could forward our concerns to. Traffic police, highway police, road and lands department, prime minister? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redline Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 It’s unfortunate that there will need to be mass deaths to change the chicken broth and amulets solution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mettech Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 I know of a Thai worked for me and he do not read but still got his license he is very slow driving and carefully dangerous but what to expect when the only transportation mode was a buffalo.

I survived the KSA Mad Max Fury Road for a total of ten years--the last six mostly by minimizing driving as much as possible. Saudis told me the rationale is simply that the other guy is the one who should get out of the way. In other words, they behave on the road exactly as they do in supermarkets. One time in Oneizah (near Buraidah, 300 miles south of Anbar Province, between Iraq and a Hard Place) I saw a big SUV full of children about to pull out of a parking lot...and the driver was a 12-year-old boy, beaming at me proudly, "Oh, hey there Mr. Foreign Expert, look at me! Look, no hands!" I asked a British Pakistani colleague who lived in Oneizah, "What's up with the parents?!" He told me "They'll be proud. They'll tell their friends 'I bet YOUR son can't do that.'" I've driven in Chiang Mai a lot. It's like a walk in the park picking dandelions and getting kisses from Scarlett Johannson compared to driving in the Tragic Kingdom. I am thankful on a daily basis, that I have never had to work, nor had to visit the desperado nation known as the Tragic Kingdom. I hope I never have to go. The place just strikes me as a country torn between the 13th and the 21st century. The House of Saud are a sorry bunch of fools, with far too much cash for their own good! And the Wahhibi "faith" is one that scares the hell out of me. I do not think I will be lending any sort of support to these long time sponsors of terror.

In regular civilised countries most people carry out their daily business conforming to laws not because of the laws and the chance, or not, of being caught but because they have a sense of civic responsibility, thought for others etc. Here there is only one rule of daily life ME FIRST, ME AND ONLY ME, EVERYBODY ELSE CAN GO TO ...., I'LL DO WHAT I WANT WHEN I WANT TOO.

gaviny Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Isn't this the way most Thais drive and overtake? I'm not sure why this incident received any attention on social media.Yes ,living in rural Thailand, I have witnessed this daily and is normal and what's more the drivers coming in the opposite direction will move to the side politely .Crazy.Sent from my SM-N9200 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
