EV Owners Frustrated as Samui Ferries Restrict EV Transport Over New Year Period
Agreed.... IF there was an EV fire, the outcome would be a lot worse as it would be far more difficult to extinguish. But, is that the only facet of this debate that should be discussed ??... On another thread one poster was arguing that his Raptor was safer than a BYD Seal because in a head on collision its heaver... However, head on collisions are only 5% accidents in Thailand, where as skid & roll over events account for 56% of accidents.... The bigger picture has to be evaluated instead of going down a rabbit hole and focusing on one aspect. The reality here is that the risk of a fire on a boat is tiny. It would be the same as an obese or old person, or someone with a broken leg places all other passengers at risk because the can't escape a plane as quickly in the event it ditches in the sea !!!... the likelihoods are tiny and there are far more other factors involved. The important part of this debate for me is the elephant in the room no one wants to discuss as focus is driven by a talking point I would consider superficial. The article showcases the lack of critical thinking within the Ferry company in question. The real issue here is the knee-jerk decision-making within the company that casts doubt on its overall competence. More telling is the inconsistency: If the alleged risk were genuine, why impose a ban on EVs only during the New Year period instead of all year round ??? This policy is an emotional decision by the company and for me this raises broader concerns about other decisions that may be made with similarly flawed reasoning. -

Police are interviewing suspect in killing of health insurance CEO
It's rather surprising when the person is caught he is described as a "local man" but nobody seems to have grown up with him or knew him from the pub or anything like that. -

Taxation Registration
I don't believe everyone is required to get a tax ID. IMO, many will get one and report their remitted assessable income if over the 60k filing threshold. But, I believe many will not get one just because they refuse to, or they don't know about it, or they have no assessable income to report, or they are tax exempt (LTR). I won't be getting one because I only remit non-assessable income and I also have a LTR visa. Just my opinion... -

EV Owners Frustrated as Samui Ferries Restrict EV Transport Over New Year Period
Here is real research into car fires on ferries. Yes this looks at fixed fire drencher systems on enclosed decks, but the same outcomes are achievable using firefighting hose linked to a ships pumps, using water spray patterns, on open deck situations. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10694-023-01473-w It is concluded that a fire in the two types of vehicles is different but have similarities. A fuel spill fire associated with an ICEV develops very rapidly, peaks high but burns out fast, whilst a fire starting in the battery pack of a BEV develops slower, is not as large but burns longer. The scenario of the fire in other combustibles, such as the tires, exterior and undercarriage plastic parts and inside the passenger compartment is similar.- 1
