richard_smith237 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 There's no mention of it... ... But how pished up was the Brit ???? At that time of night my bets are over the limit and three-sheets to the wind..... probably no helmet either. ... probably no licence to ride too, not that this influences the standards of riding here, but could imply an illegal rental as theoretically rental companies cannot legally rent out motorycles to those without a motorcycle licence (something that is of course, never enforced). 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, you're probably more correct in your profiling than incorrect, also, that as there are so many Brits in Pattaya you have a higher statistically probability of being right than wrong (when observing caucasians on motorcycles). ... Attitude, cargo-shorts, tats certainly fits a stereotype... But the general slur would be insulting to many Brits who don't fit that mould.

Kaopad999 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 10 hours ago, thesetat said: The rental bike business booms there in Pattaya without any checks to see if the driver actually knows how to drive a motorcycle. Then these same drivers become overconfident and drive stupidly and fast or recklessly causing accidents. They deserve their injuries and the hefty fines they will soon have to pay for the damage they caused. In other countries you actually need a special license to drive or rent motorbikes. Thailand should adopt a safer attitude towards this. Perhaps change all the motorbike rentals to bicycles. Pattaya is not that big of a city that you could not get anywhere on a bicycle easily enough. How about the people renting the bikes embracing a sense of self-responsibility, understanding one's own capabilities, and refraining from driving under the influence?

I bought my first motor bike when I was 17 some 54 years ago a CB 250. I love riding but don't like driving. I also found that biker's are some of the nicest people that I've met.

Paris333 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) In U.S.A, a Law was passed where motorcycles and bicycles are prohibited from overtaking cars on the road in cities with less than 50,000 inhabitants. If you overtake a car or change lanes, know you are uninsured..... Edited January 13 by Paris333 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that accident she will be forced to ask for less money until her injuries are healed. Unless she got scarred badly that is. .
