Cuba Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 'Back in February it was decided to propose changes to 1979 traffic laws' Not sure any cop anywhere in the world would be fully conversant with that amount of laws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still parked, on the wrong side, facing the wrong direction... in some countries this is illegal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to borrow someones glasses, look closely for the yellow dividing line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to try and tar all police to a few who are questionable. I have been here for years so I am sure of what I am talking about. Lucky you there's always one????

Henryford Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 You mean there are road traffic laws in Thailand ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manhood Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Just as most thais, the police have no knowledge about driving right or wrong as they do the same way of driving they complain about. While i was driving already the most thais were in their pampers or even on the back of buffaliws in the village.So i wont let any police man tell me that i was wrong driving!!!!

One of the times, 3 officers were chasing someone who stole my wife’s iPhone. I doubt they would have spent the same time and people on a similar case in another country. They are not all bad and it really must suck to be a “good” cop here. There are situations where police will take action, but the road laws are not one of those situations. The laws on the roads are governed by teens, with their speedy noisy motorbikes. And the 'adult teens' driving their pick up trucks seem to remember their good old days. Some farangs just love to imitate the driving on the roads here. Checking for helmets do happen, while this should be the last priority on the list. But when it comes to murder, theft, rape, assault, the police do take action, and diligently so... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
les Dennis Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 And yet Id imagine they still have a driving license and drive on the roads not knowing the laws too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cracker1 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 So the police don't know the law and will be taught by their superiors. How are the public going to learn all the changes ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
