There should be no more mucking about with sentences for these youths these days - worldwide,
You attack someone or stab someone with a knife - attempted murder - 25 years - no slap on the wrist or mental health sentence.
I drive a motorcycle in Chiang Mai and actually feel it's safer to do that here than in the U.S. In Thailand almost everyone who drives a car also drives a moto and with the exception of certain young men, (in Thailand and everywhere), they are more considerate of moto drivers as a result.
That said, the lack of even minimal police presence to discourage speeding, driving the wrong way on a divided highway, loud mufflers and other moving violations, is a critically important issue. Agree totally with Lacessit; I have never in 15 years here ever seen a cop ticketing a car or van for anything. I see cops at the occasional helmet-checking roadblock. But that's it. Until police personnel get off their buts and enforce laws, the carnage will continue and innocent people will continue to die.
It's probably the first time western guys had decent sex and they "fall in love" with it ( and the person around it ). Who wouldn't want to have it all the time?
The girls get married because it's a guaranteed meal ticket.
