Report Rising Pedestrian Deaths Highlight Urgent Need for Enhanced Safety Measures
I base my conclusions on scientific evidence and critical thinking - Your kind of comment — trying to rank vehicles in some imagined "road hierarchy" with Thai truck drivers at the top — is really just personal perception dressed up as fact. It's “fake news”; it’s speculative at best and says more about the poster’s own discomfort on Thai roads than it does about actual road dynamics. Blaming one type of vehicle, whether it’s trucks, buses, or motorbikes, often reflects the fact that some drivers never fully adapt to Thailand’s road culture — even after years of living here. Thai driving isn’t necessarily wrong — it’s different, and it requires different instincts, expectations, and reactions. But let’s not lose focus. This thread is about pedestrian safety, not four-wheeled vehicles, not motorcycles, and not truck drivers. In traffic engineering terms, the global aim — Thailand included — is to separate pedestrians from motor vehicles as much as possible. That means safe sidewalks, proper crossings, barriers, footbridges, and clear signalling. The real failure in Thailand lies not with specific drivers, but with how poorly the road system is designed to protect pedestrians. In many areas, there are no pavements, no working crossings, and no meaningful enforcement of pedestrian rights. So while people argue about who’s the worst on the road, the bigger issue — and the more fixable one — is road design and urban planning that consistently overlooks pedestrian safety. -

Coming trade deals or massive inflation?
No, prices are dropping, it's the Trump EFFECT and WINNING strategies and policies. Promises Made Promises Kept. How about that, Trumps got it going big time, making Biden look more like the useless America hating failure he truly is. Tariffs can put upward pressure on prices of some goods but generally do not cause inflation like Biden created with reckless out of control gov't spending. -

Rule change at Jomtien immigration for extensions by condo owners
I know several people who have to use Jomtien. It is a totally toxic office (which is ok for those who use an agent), but, to those of us who are totally legit, it would be a nightmare. Some here just love Jomtien IO though.- 1

Report New Cannabis Regulation: Prescription Required for Sales
So if this goes through, how would it work? So you get a scrip related to your health conditions. Then what? Are you then restricted to specific strains that are meant to help with your ailment? Will potent high THC flowers still be for sale, or only very low THC stuff? -

these are the result of poor road design and conception - and if you have limited mobility they are an insult. -
