Thai Woman's Bizarre Road Machine

BANGKOK: -- A female scooter rider in Thailand goes down the road with a buffalo’s horn and skull mounted on top of the headlamps, a sawed-off shotgun lying across the top of the steering column, and what appears to be the rider’s pet bird taking short bursts of flight and resting on the handlebars in between.

The comments on this clip (found at the original YouTube page) are as entertaining as the video itself, with some describing her and the bird as “awesome,” while others point out the danger of riding with her helmet not properly placed, not to mention the shotgun she has in front of her.

A couple of half decent traffic cops would have this sorted out in no time. Aaah half decent cops, back to the ear medicine methinks

Buffalo horns, shotgun and USA seat, weird, I like bird thing adds nice touch.

I'm picturing someone getting impaled by those horns.

Love the bird though!

Does Dick Dastardly know about this?

It is illegal in Thailand to ride a motorcycle without a horn.

In nautical circles, flying the nation flag upside down indicates you are in distress.

With motorcycles, wearing your helmet backwards indicates severely impaired brain function.

What's the big drama? She was only taking her bid for a walk.

Stuff like this reminds me of why i love to live here…pepole still have a freedom we lost to the "not my job's worth" and their bureaucrat masters in Europe long ago…. a country where fireman,for fear of losing their jobs, aren't allowed to go into water over ankle deep to rescue somebody in distress until a specialist water rescue unit arrives on the scene….burn Brussels burn….. (this coffees good, got me ranting already 555)

Does she have a mustache?

Mad Maxine rides again!

Heading for The Thunderdome.

Does she have a mustache?

She might have. She's got everything else.

This is THAILAND & it is THEIR COUNTRY...let them do what they want to do..it is not for US to judge a Thai persons action..If this LADY were Jewish and an ARTIST living in NEW YORK CITY...her Scooter would be a 'work of art" and worth thousands...this scooter,which to me it is a Work of ART should be used as a ADVERT "to
do your own thing in THAILAND" She should do TV Commercials...I would rather see this type of news than 99% of what we read today....travel the villages of Thailand and see the "REAL THAILAND"...lots of folk art and humor...and PEOPLE WHO STILL SMILE.

Please DO NOT post in weird fonts thank you

it's good to see some Thai bucking trends, and not going along with 'herd mentality.'

Firstly STOP SHOUTING !!

Secondly, who said anyone was judging I can only read positive posts, what's your problem? And what's with the Jewish comment?

Get a life

It is illegal in Thailand to ride a motorcycle without a horn.

Is that why the old guys always have a pretty girl behind with their arm around them?

Grumpy Old Man, you think you got Thailand all figured out do you?

My kind of lady shotgun and all.

In the immortal words of Nell (Played by Jody Foster):

Want.

I hope she has trained that bird not to fly directly in front of the bike. Or at least has it toilet trained.

If she has red head lights and white brake lights the crazy is complete.

I do dig the bird.

They missed the vid of locals painting their headlight red, then driving at people head-on down the wrong side of the road.

There is no reason, other than they are Thai.

My kind of lady shotgun and all.

But can she cook????

Cute. The bird, that is. That woman scares me to death. If you piss her off, those horns will end up where the sun don't shine!

Coolest lady Ever!!! Ha ha...

Quite possibly the most annoying post on Thai Visa this year. For many reasons.

1. No one is judging her.

2. Mentioning 'Jewish' and' 'New York' in the most irrelevant way possible.

3. The random words in capitals.

Well done, you won the internet.

Get on a treadmill to work off your frustrations.

She's also got a rifle mounted beside the bike where the exhaust would normally be.

Easy Horny Rider, go girl!
