LivinginKata Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Fortuner drivers. All of them. Surprisingly Hans, last Tuesday we drove back from the airport (paid ticket at 18.20) and charged through the traffic towards Kata. On Chaofa West, after Central, the slow guys/gals were all the Fortuners. Just bumbling about holding me up. BTW - we arrived in Kata 19.25, very good run from the airport at a busy time. Quite an exciting drive --- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't have much of a problem with anyone else!! Very true! I drive my motorbike Thai style. The tourists are totally clueless how to drive here! They stop where they shouldn't and then go without looking. The only one's I've come even close to hitting were idiot farangs on motorbikes. Then of course there are drunk ones walking down the middle of the road in the dark as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carib Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 "Who Are The Worst Drivers In Phuket"? I think ; Lek and Frank, Olov for sure, Tik and her brother ( they share a bike), Jiggy from the crazy horse bar and Somchai the tall driver who works at the fire department. First runners up would be Dave from Oz and Carl from Blighty and special honors go to Heinrich from Düsseldorf. Think I got it covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patongphil Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Fortuner drivers. All of them. Couldn't agree more. I have often thought there must be some sort of Goo Goo gas of sort they comes out of the dashboard of fortunas. How such a high percentage of piss poor drivers have bought the same vehicle beggars belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 the ones not listed, the ones with ego problems But the poll have 'fortunas' already. Hummer owners have to be quite rich to show how small dicks they have. One of the benefits of living in a developing country is that one can do the same a lot cheaper here.

Pakaty Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I would have voted for motorcycles driven by Thai males under 30 if that was a choice. The most inconsiderate drivers on the road IMHO. But, Tuk-tuks, mini-vans, cement trucks and other large trucks are right up there. I thought the choice of fortuna's ammusing but to be honest I never noticed so I guess they never gave me to much grief. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pagallim Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Many comparisons here, and like most I have a desire to avoid certain types of vehicle. If I were to put them into one single category, it would be any vehicle which wasn't actually owned by the driver. Doesn't matter if it's a bus, minibus, truck, pick up, limousine, tuk tuk. If it has a green, yellow, blue etc registration plate, avoid it. Owner drivers tend to have more respect for their vehicle (if not always the other driver) but seldom drive dangerously. At the moment, I'm very conscious of red plate cars as their drivers seem to have only just passed (maybe, maybe not) their test but have little experience of actual driving on public roads. Erratic signals and lane changing is normally a good clue also. However, if there was one particular type of vehicle which seems to inhabit the body shop more than any other, then it's the pick up.

Sydneycraig Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I drive a fortuna and do so very considerately ... The fleet of fortunas driven by staff at the hotel next door are driven like race cars ... So yep non owner drivers is a good point ... Tuk tuks whilst shit bla bla bla actually drive fairly well usually I think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post IrishIvan Posted February 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2013 Old expat males on rickety old honda dreams or waves. They are always wobbling all over the road. They drive around drunk and normally the front basket is so full of yachting junk and other <deleted>, motorists cant see their headlamps. They drive at about 5 kilometers an hour through intersections holding up all the traffic. These pests can be found in their native habitats of Chalong, Rawaii and variuos boat yards around boat lagoon area.Treat with caution after 6pm as often intoxicated 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalong bay could be a scene from Waterworld from what ive witnessed. No need for props or make up. Bad personal hygiene and old unmaintained boats already in place.
