Will Thais learn ?

A few years back, a typical tourist photo from thailand was a picture of a scooter riding on the wrong side of the road carrying a man, a woman, and a new born held by the woman’s arm (one arm) with no helmet in sight.

No such photo exists. If it does, upload it. Nor could it have been in the least “typical.” So, you made that up as a dishonest beginning to this little bash.

Today, the same photo is taken with two differences. Each wearing a mask and the new born is a toddler.

No same photo exists. You made that up too. 

 

Even if it did, it doesn’t support any point about Thais generally.

 

Really just a troll post that should be removed except for its great appeal to our bigots, bolstering their most cherished "Thais are stupid" narrative. And of course our countless ace TVF Driving Schoolmarms always love to point the finger.

 

Better just get over your provincialism and gain self-confidence so that you don’t need to feel superior by pointing fingers at Thais and making absurd blanket generalities.

 

That said, our TVF Driving Schoolmarms have indeed sometimes noticed Thais driving on the wrong side. These are very poor, uneducated Thais who are nonetheless conscious of the danger and stay well over to the side. The purpose is often to avoid a long out-of-the-way detour to the next U-turn. Those U-turns tend to dangerous as well.

 

And Thais understand and accept the convenience. It’s a cultural thing. No one ever gets stopped or ticketed. There's no righteous outrage when encountering an instance. In fact I don't recall hearing of any accidents owing to that specific practice, have you? Some drunk or speedster on the wrong side of the road is a different case. 

 

Yeah, no one thinks anything of it EXCEPT arrogant bigots on TVF. 

 

I do personally know educated Thais who’ll sometimes do the same. In fact, I do it myself sometimes. Suck it up, pal.

 

Typically it’s for a short distance and beats getting out in traffic, fighting to the next U-turn, and fighting on the way back. You wanna feel all Dudley Do-Right about never doing it yourself, go right ahead. But worry about yourself, rather than what some poor Thai family is doing, usually in a rural area. Maybe you start on India.

 

Far as helmets, there are in fact a lot farang opponents to helmet laws and don’t wear them. Evidently you’re unaware, so Google must be your friend.
 

I see often quite a few helmetless farang riding around on the outskirts of Pattaya. Sometimes I cringe to picture that old bald noggin hitting the street. Mostly on the outskirts--but it’s entertaining to sit at a bar near the Soi 9 for a couple hours and watch the police pull over helmetless farang. SHOCK. Been doing that since forever. In this case, the farang merely think they're somehow privileged in Thailand. Gon' be hard fall to learn the truth.

 

Will Farangs Learn?

 

Moreover these poor people can only afford some cheap plastic helmet anyway. Our Helmet Experts have always known it’s no protection. Thais know it. Why don’t you buy them Shoei or AGV? Oh—now it’s not your business.

 

And you could better spend your time trying to help the vastly overweight farangs in wifebeaters who’ve been disgusting Thais for the last 30 years or walking around shirtless in business areas, sometimes with an open bottle.

 

 

Maybe grabbing the butt of some bargirl they've rented. Will Farang Learn? So far no. No wonder The Authorities have tightened up visa and extension rules. They need to do more. Then will they learn? 

 

Will YOU learn to observe and focus on all the negative farang behavior and try to change THAT rather than trying to feel superior by pointing the finger at uneducated, very poor people of a different race and culture and suggesting therefore any person of that nationality can't learn.

Jesus Christ man! Lol. Clearly the context went over your head my friend. The photo was for illustration purposes. Was trying to demonstrate that it is possible to cause behavioral change if it is done properly was the message. There are many holes in your long reply. I’m happy to address them if you insist.

Great Post BigStar, of course most of the TVF bigots will slaughter you for it, these arrogant Farangs pi.ss me off too, non stop whining,  ridiculing Thai's and Thailand, I thought the excessive Thai bashing was against forum rules.

I think most of the TVF Thai bashers have very limited real experience in Thailand, maybe a 2 week holiday a few years ago.

What options does she have?

 

Some Thai guy impregnates her, she has the child and the guy does a runner.

She has no money for a car and baby capsule. 

 

It's a sad sight.

It's so sad to see so many beautiful Thai's die on our roads.

It's a matter of economics and infrastructure. 

Some families can't afford safety equipment and also Thailand is a developing country, often 39 years behind the west. 

My father scolded me for smoking in my house when there were kids in it. He smoked 30 years previously in the car with kids in it. 

He scolded me for not having rear seat belts in my car, same. 

In Khon Kaen 20 years ago, there were no buses or taxis to my house at night. 

Still in some places there is no alternative to families riding on a motorbike.

'Our' roads?????????

Is it wrong for me to say 'our' roads? 

 

I drive on the roads everyday and pay road tax!

 

What would you like me to say?

Why say 'Thai' guy?

Strange question. 

Because it's Thailand. 

 

Would you prefer I say Philippino, or Malaysian guy
