Thailand is and will remain the No. 1 country for road deaths

"For road traffic, the police have announced they will be strictly imposing penalties against traffic law violators, including drunk drivers and speed limit violators."

Sat in tents at night watching their phones, stopping g no-one and drinking, oh yes I have seen it each and every year for the past 165 years . Going after people with outstanding arrest warrants only if the LOCAL police do not warn their family members of their impending doom.
