cracker1 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Seems the motorcyclist was driving too fast or too close to the truck and did not allow an appropriate stopping distance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterpaintpot Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 U-turns and the new regulations for them to allow higher speed in the third lane. Driving to Korat from Saraburi yesterday we were on the part of Highway 2 that is under the new overhead Motorway travelling at about 90 kph in the middle lane when two vehicles joined the third lane via a U-turn on the same level as Highway 2. I'm sure that I read that the higher speed level would not be allowed on roads with this crazy suicidal type of U-turn. Thais have such a short memory retention!

ikke1959 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) I try to be aware of suddenly unexpected moves by all users on the roads all the time.. They never watch for other traffic but just do something... Edited September 2, 2022 by ikke1959 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
