We all know the risks in Thailand, we all know it's one of the most dangerous places to drive.  We all think, "yea, they died, but it won't happen to me."  I will never rent a motorbike, and i'm amazed how many farangs i see who are not comfortable on the bike........ not sure the solution.  do less, get more people and rent a car, i don't know....it's very dangerous out there.  sorry about this guy.

I dont think its that bad, just ride slowly and defensively and wear a helmet. at least in cambodia they dont have that low IQ thai fashion that many tourists imitate of wearing a helmet without doing up the strap
