JulesMad Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 I find it very hard to feel even remotely sorry for people in ridiculous expensive cars, who have accidents and/or do other stupid things. My thoughts go always out to their victims!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoker58 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 That’s the trouble with Ferrari’s. They spend all the money on the engine and then put in crappy brakes. The driver probably didn’t know that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 This is an excellent reason not to drive a Ferrari or any other super car in Thailand. There is a temptation to go fast, and that is a very dangerous thing to do here. Regardless of your skill level. There are alot of drivers here who are not in possession of impressive driving skills, nor are they paying attention sufficiently, nor are they planning and calculating correctly, or showing respect to other drivers, when making a move in traffic. So, better to drive with great caution, something the Ferrari driver does not appear to have been doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai drivers first reaction to an impending collision is to swerve. I guess they do not brake because that would wear out the brake pads - a bit like Thai motorcyclists who disable their rear lights to save on fuel ?

amdy2206 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 It does not really matter which car you have if you drive outside the limits. Stupid driving causes accident4s - if it rains slow down!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Leopard Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 There is a 26 year old Brit guy in Dubai who rented a Lambo Huracan and run up 172,000 AED (About 1,5 Million B) in speeding tickets in 3 days. The rental was about 27,000 B per day. What a clown. The funny thing is that the rental company still has his passport. That takes some doing. Get out of that one mate. I think some jail time is coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that Ferrari & other High Performance car dealerships did offer instruction to customs on how to handle their vehicles. Perhaps not in Thailand as they might incur a liability if driver error causes an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
