This was debated death in that discussion a couple of years ago (same video SF showed) The traffic crossing the railway tracks has right of way. The traffic running parallel to the railway line is required to give way. That's not opinion, that's how the junction is signed and marked. Those junctions are designed that way for a reason. If vehicles crossing the tracks had to wait, queues could back up onto the railway itself, which is precisely the situation the layout is intended to prevent. SF's position at the time was essentially that "any local knows" the road running parallel to the tracks takes priority, regardless of what the road markings, signage and traffic rules actually say. As for this thread, it was inevitable. SF has a serious chip on his shoulder - a long-standing habit of turning almost any discussion into a critique of foreigners in Thailand. The only topic that seems to excite him more is having a go at foreigners with mobility issues using mobility trikes - a second chip that balances the first. A thread involving a mobility scooter where he might be able to shoe-horn in some anti-foreigner rhetoric is pretty much catnip to him. His comments are predictable, before he even started typing.
