That's why I didn't read the full story. as said before No Hemet, maybe no M/C license. The Cops and rescue services would know if he was wearing a helmet or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Denim Posted April 4, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2023 7 minutes ago, KannikaP said: When will they ever learn? Not only tourists but Thais and expats. I live in lower Petchabun near Sri Thep. I frequently see the expats who live around here riding along in shorts , sandals and no helmets.. Only about 1 in 10 bothers to put a helmet on. One was killed two years ago in a head on collision. A helmet would probably have saved him. So if you are an expat living here .....wear a helmet and save yourself getting in the news for the wrong reasons. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The culture is the same all over Asia and young tourists copy what they see and enjoy being "free" from the nanny state in their home country. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woof999 Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Deja vu. We were all, and some still are, young and so we make mistakes. Good luck and all the best to him. No need to vilify him in his and his family's darkest moment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
