You have no idea if the sign was badly engineered. A well engineered & structurally sound sign collapsed on the road / vehicle… No issues with quality of engineering and inspection of work. The Wall collapse at Don Muang Airport of course has nothing to do with engineering standards. Nothing to see here… Don’t bash Thailand, you’ll upset our resident apologist !!! ???????? 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangkokReady Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 25 minutes ago, Liverpool Lou said: hackneyed In case anyone is curious: hackneyed (adj.) "trite, so overused as to have become uninteresting," 1749, figurative use of past-participle adjective from hackney (v.) "use a horse for riding" (1570s), hence "make common by indiscriminate use" (1590s), from hackney (n.), and compare hack (n.2) in its specialized sense of "one who writes anything for hire." From 1769 as "kept for hire." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
