Uk regulations as I am from the Uk, but same in most countries, that includes Thailand.

 

Go to your local fire station and ask a trained driver. I have family in Thailand in fire and rescue services and I asked them, not just shouting my mouth off in a forum, with no knowledge, experience or training, like you.

 

I also read that Dunning and Kruger were looking classic examples for their research, you seem to be will suited for that.

 

Bye, as I have better things to d than try to educate TROLLS.

Referring to Thais as "Somchais" is highly derogatory.

 

ROFLOL - Do you feel the same when Thais use the term Farang ??

Get over yourself mate - it is a generic term to signifiy a young Thai male who drives a car/pickup/bike far too fast.

If you do actually live here, you will see it is never young Thai females - hence male name Somchai.

Why are you guys arguing over the road rules in UK?

These are UK regulations not worldwide regulations... plus right there in the body of what he is pushing there is a clause that allows for emergency vehicles to take the right of way if the situation warrants it

Nobody ever said they were worldwide regulations. And yes, they can take right of way but only if it is safe to do so!!

Most of the western world have the same sort of driver training and regulations. Here in Thailand any Tom, Dick or Harry can get behind the wheel with no training whatsoever. They drive emergency vehicles the same way they drive their bikes or cars. None of them have any form of advanced driver training hence the accidents. 
I think you have now flogged this topic to death to be honest so just accept the facts as they are from the people that now.

Have you fead the thread?

 

This was using examples to explain the situation in this accident, in Thailand.

 

Maybe if you have nothing constructive to post, stick to quoting Enoch Powell in you other posts today.

Reading Poms arguing over the road rules in UK - Hilarious

Poms 'explaining' any situation in Thailand - Abolutely Hilarious.

Demanding 'constructive' posts - meaning 'what I agree with' - Delusional and Hilarious.

First of all there is more than the uk in this world... Secondly you are intentionally omitting from all your posting that it the right of way may be taken by emergency vehicles if it is deemed by the driver to be safe...
