Bangkokfunny Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Does too much Som Tam cause brain failures ??? That might be the question, due to all the brain failures in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe she was tired or sleepy (Some people must wake up too early to work). Maybe she drank the night before. There are many possibilities outside the most obvious one. I find some of the comments by people making fun of the person's inability sad and retarded. Ironically, they might be just as brainless as her (if straight and emotional intelligence matter). Some describe the video as funny. I wonder if they were sad that she did not kill herself. The more I stay on these forums the more I feel that some comment to make themselves look and feel better. Like I say --and I repeat for the ones who did not get it then first time-- I think some of them are challenged too.

gbswales Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Most accidents occur because of a lapse of concentration - when the mind "wanders off to another place" for a few seconds. Who here can honestly say they have never lost concentration and had to suddenly brake or swerve to avoid an accident? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 11 secs to lower fully.. She hits the barrier at 53 secs point... All the time, those big flashing orange lights are warning normal people of a hazard !! I'm surprised most people ever arrive at their destinations here, I guess scooters must have auto pilot ??? It's the nature of accidents that they seem unbelievable. Clearly, she wasn't concentrating- I guess she glanced up the road and didn't pay much attention since the road was clear. Like I said- seen much worse!

All accidents result from carelessness and stupidity, and, big or small, we all have them. It seems amazing that she didn't see what was right in front of her eyes, but it is a common cause. It's a good advert for driving slowly and helmeted if nothing else. Edited May 1, 2018 by mommysboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us have walked in to things that weren't there a few seconds ago. 69 replies so far and YOU are the only one trying to defend stupid driving. Well done. Thai apologist reward in the post.

No other logical explanation why someone would drive straight into a barrier in plain view. But then, this is Thailand so who knows. There has been no explanation I am aware of from the woman.

She was daydreaming.... it's obvious. Dreadful riding, but a genuine accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How serious must an eyesight problem be and how deaf the ears to overlook and overhear this barrier??? (overhear: the video has no tone but I am quite certain that a bell is beaten) Rational explanation? No blinding by the sun, the visor shouldn't be that dark (forbidden by the way). She brakes, but very very late. Was it an epic failure trying to jump the barrier? Ridiculous. and flashing red lights.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basic prescription glasses are no more than 50bt in most Thai markets..... OK, if each eye is different, or they need astigmatism correction then these basic specs would be unsuitable, but they would be acceptable in probably 99% of cases. There really is no excuse for driving/riding with uncorrected vision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watcharacters Posted May 5, 2018 Share Posted May 5, 2018 I for one am happy the inattentive lady driver was able to walk away from this potentially deadly accident with the aid of a helpful Thai man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
