I think it is illegal ... but I also think there is a nice black market where those who can afford luxury car can easely afford guns.

You can legally own a gun in Thailand, but you have to jump through some hoops.  It's also very expensive!

the license isn't, quite straight forward. the guns themselves are usually imports so cost more than elsewhere. in my area most households have guns. they said they are stopping foreigners licenses a while back but i have said before that no one has came to inform me

That video has been staged!

Staged or not, have seen that video many times in the past from other countries, so as usual it's Thai copycat.

 

I myself can't recount how many times I have considered of building an armoured truck, and just wipe off the front of all those cars that come out of a side soi onto a main road, and only stop when their front wheels are already over the edge.

Social experiment and a way to get shot.

Why didn't they walk over the Porsche but just "roll over". Afraid?

 

Maybe they are not quite as suicidal as suggested (a.k.a. "ran out of balls").

"Anyone under 70 should watch with caution" the poster advised

I'd say anyone over 70 might find it more difficult

Pfftt, yeah, sure, Benz and Porche owners... easy peasy. Hey if you have guts, try that on Somchai's taxi. I ain't paying for your funeral, though.

Zebra crossings are a death trap in Thailand.
Especially for first-time visitors, who know from their home countries, that the vehicles will stop to let pedestrians over.
Not here!
Beware!
