2 or 3 weeks ago a russian tour bus lost control while going past view taly and went past the honoman, past 7-11, and ended up at the end of the parking lot half in the road on a huge block of concrete. it is still there blocking the road now, weeks later. what is wrong with the people in charge that they just leave it there, not only unsightly but causing accidents as people try to make the turn into the wrong lane.

And for those who like postings with pictures... Here are a couple of the offending bus.

Was just thinking the same thing myself a few days ago.I live in Jomtien and drive past it everyday.Even if there was to be

some problem with trying to get the Bus-owners to rectify the situation and remove it...(maybe they're bankrupt and are

non-contactable)....then surely Pattaya City Hall authorities should have taken some action by now and removed it.Also,

the Electric wiring on the road beside to where the bus is stranded has been hanging down and people walking or driving

vehicles can come into contact with them.

It wouldn't take a lot of $$$ to take care of this..........especially when we see all the efforts going into signs like the

Walking Street one....this bus location is to me an obviously more pressing issue.Been living here long enough to regretfully

admit that it doesn't surprise me though...aw well..mai pen rai..TIT!!

looks like you know the one I am talking about

Probably stay there until they need it moved to complete the second road, that could be decades...

How can you loose control in a parking lot?

Ever tried making out in the back seat?

They have just moved the bus back and removed the concrete block, on which it was resting, from the road. The bus is still there, but at least the road should be clear in the very near future, once they clear the rest of the debris.

I heard it wasn't insured hence the stalemate

Dangling wires are NO PLOMPLEM
