johng Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 If only drivers of 6 wheelers weren't "asleep at the wheel"Now having said that there could be other causes...like the 6 wheeler didnt have head lights and the 10 wheeler didnt have reflective material stuck on the rear (maybe just a Rambo or Serpico mud flap) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LoS itaint Posted October 14, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2019 Anything remotely associated with Thais driving and knowledge of their highway code is an absolute deadly farce. The majority have not got a scooby doo of the rules and regulations and those that do the majority have no respect for them. The Government can introduce new laws but they are ignored and not enforced by their Keystone Cop police force...........AMAZING THAILAND 11 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 90% of Thais would have their cars taken away in most countries. That is about the common sense of a brick and that is why Thailand is the most dangerous place in the world on the roads. I always wonder where the police are. If they did their jobs they could be some of the richest people in Thailand. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

30la Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Well the custom of truck drivers to stop in the most dangerous places on the highway, without lights at night to take a nap or a pisciatina is really without equal, where is the police? Here it would really serve, I don't think that in Thailand you can stop wherever you want! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here it would really serve, I don't think that in Thailand you can stop wherever you want! You know, that makes a bit of sense. If the guy was stopping to take a nap or take a wiz, they might pick the darkest least well lighted place they could find. But still, unless it is a blind curve, kind of hard to not see a big truck on the side of the road. Unless, gee let me think, upcoming drivers driving too fast, not paying attention, looking at their smart phones, drunk, etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko45k Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Anybody who knows Hwy 36 knows it is currently an absolute mess of construction and diversion, certainly at my end near Banglamung. I agree most local drivers have no sense other than that of 'self'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farmerkev Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 The police dont follow the rules why should we expect the general public too especially when they have their lucky charms to protect them.police nearly knocked my wife, son and me down yesterday as we crossed the road, he was driving up a slip road on oneway road. When i confronted him he said i go there thats were i work. Told him no excuse he is traffic police he needs to follow the rules he turned and made a speedy retreat when i asked my wife for the mobile to take a picture 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me- it's simply a question of common sense. When a person- especially driving a truck pulls over (and the question is whether the vehicle is actually off the road) for whatever reason(s), and it is dark...AND God knows if the vehicle is actually in the road itself....to me, it's -as always a lack of common sense. And obviously, many lack that in Thailand. "When" you become a weapon for your stupidity that results in the death(s) of innocent people, then quite frankly YOU are going to jail. I welcome any Thai comments to debate such:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargeezr Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Here is Thainess, this truck would not be allowed to operate in a 1st world country with the windshield like this, or the pickup with a box full of people like the 2nd picture. Face it Thailand is a 3rd world country and will not change. All sorts of accidents happen in Thailand that are far less frequent in countries with laws that are enforced.
