Retiredandhappyhere Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 When driving the ten kms into or out of Hua Hin at night, my wife and I count the number of motor cycle riders without back lights and mostly without helmets as well. So far the minimum has been 5 but often as many as 7 or 8. So, the number of accidents involving motor cycles is no surprise! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my early morning excursions on the bike I see many motorcyclists without lights. I makes me wonder why they value their life less than the price of a bulb? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I makes me wonder why they value their life less than the price of a bulb? Some motorcycle riders disable their rear light by removing the bulb or disconnecting the feed. My wife's sister is one. Her reason is fear of ghostly spirits who, upon seeing a moving light, will follow it and attack the rider. Ludicrous but true. She insists, however, on making sure that her headlight is always on full beam when riding at night since she rides on the wrong side of the road against oncoming traffic. This she says is safer because vehicle drivers can see her coming. Despite this 'safe' practice she has had three serious accidents in the past two years and has permanently bent forearms. A second sister too has had more motorcycle accidents than I can recall all resulting in deformed limbs. My wife, under my influence, has never owned or ridden a motorcycle in the nearly fifty years of our marriage and remains intact. ???? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ54 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Some have added a switch to turn off lights… .. guess their way of hiding. 2006 when I moved to China the local buses ran without headlights on…. Supposedly saving life of the bulbs… stupid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sending it to Webster's for their next update. Well done Sir!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
