llamedos Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I live out of Bangkok on the Bang Na Trad and it seems driving on the wrong side is now the norm I have to constantly swerve for cars, pickups motor bikes who for some reason think that flashing their lights gives them the right to do this. I may also mention this is condoned by the BIB as they are interested only in cars / pickups or motorbikers with no helmets. I was nearly killed when driving home at 8pm a 10 wheeler was doing this with his lights off Any Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny, i also appear to have to have an adverse avatar i meet here every now and then. Same name but he or me swapped my D for his L or the other way around. Never had a quarrel. Never met him, but he is a swell guy. Edited February 10, 2013 by Dancealot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, this one seemed to 'sail' off topic rather fast. I have a feeling it will drift away and sink before it gets back on topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melvinmelvin Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 maybe the OP is seeing the first steps in a slow conversion to Thailand driving on the right rather than on the left not much to say about it though, except that its very dangerous and the cause of numerous accidents and the BiBs don't really care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
