What is exactly reckless driving in Thailand??? I read many times " prosecuted for reckless driving" but when I drive in my car on the roads I see a lot of people reckless driving in my opinion... Motorcycles on the right lanes or in the middle of the road speeding with no helmets, cars driving at the wrong side of the road, Overloaded trucks on the right lanes to block traffic, which makes people pass on the left, and many more examples.... or is it just as the policeman in charge  find it is reckless to write a fine?? A good lawyer in that case would cancel that fine than.
