Just how many people must die before they stop building U-turns on Thai highways instead of proper intersections? Insane!

 

Vehicles that pull out to U-turn in front of you just don't care, especially big trucks and lorries.

Was thinking along those lines a lot recently.... I live near Hwy 36 North of Pattaya and we get a lot of trucks..... making U-Turns on it is my only way in and out of town. Trucks are a major worry to me.... they head in both directions far too fast. And this is a relatively new construction.... if there were no U-Turns, there would be people heading in the wrong direction I suspect....

That'll be no seat belt then... windscreen 1-0 passenger.

Those trucks appear to be from the same company.

Looks like a convoy.

Driving too close together?
