Well I don't mean to be sarky with you but they can't use it before the event. I have a link that gives access to the traffic CCTV system around Pattaya.. not sure if it allowed to post here.

If the police viewed CCTV any hour of the day, they would observe 100 traffic infractions every hour: red-light running; encroaching into yellow-shaded boxes; helmetless bikers; speedsters. If the police hit these danger spots, they would effectively 'teach' drivers how to drive safely, (by warnings or fines.)The UK police did it when seat-belts were 1st introduced and have saved thousands of lives since.

I spent a lot of time in Amsterdam in July and August this year and had no issues, but then I stayed in the primarily white and Christian parts of the city. My only problems were with certain non residents, otherwise I had a wonderful safe time walking through ouid zuid to Rembrandtplein to Leidesplein. My afternoons spent in sunny Vondelpark were a delight. An expensive city, but one that I thoroughly enjoyed. As a group of 19 year olds the last thing on our mind was afternoons spent in sunny Vondelpark or walking through ouid zuid to Rembrandtplein to Leidesplein Think the first stop was the Pink floyd coffee shop. After that who knows? But we were a pair of Nike air max down by noon

Crazy its all a blank. I am on the left Hats off to you for fessing up. After viewing the CCTV, some would have been tempted to not update or be vague about the outcome. I can’t see clearly from the picture, but I take it you had a helmet on that potentially saved your life.

Crazy its all a blank. I am on the left I suggest that you do not ride a bike for at least 1-2 months while thing settle down in the old noggin. Likewise, do not do anything that might result in you falling or banging your head. That is a serious blow, and while you may not be clearly seriously injured, there is probably 'bruising' involved and you need to let that all settle down. If you start getting nausea or dizziness, get your butt to a hospital ASAP. If you are taking Aspirin/Warfarin then go see your DR/GP and ask about stopping it for a while - reduce chances of internal bleeding. Get a torch each morning and look into a mirror - then shine the torch into your eyes and watch if the pupils dilate and if they do so evenly. If they dont, or one does but not the other does - get your butt to a hospital. Take it very easy for a while mate.

Thank you, I will take your advice onboard, everything seems ok so far, I am getting on a bit in age so I seriously need to take care. Been to hospital again today for final check, and all was good Will try the torch test.
