Saw a big bike crash today, 2 youngsters on a moped going far to fast, no crash helmets, rammed into the side of an SUV, the boy got up straight away but I couldn't see if the young girl was okay, I wish people would slow down here!! The only good thing is that it was directly outside Phuket Bangkok hospital so help would have come quickly!!

Big bike crash doesn't mean what you said. "Big bikes" are the bikes larger than scooters - you know, real motorcycles.

It means a bike had a big crash!

I know what you meant after reading your post. Though I must admit that I am not part off the thread title correctness police enforcement group, as I may have given you a sterner warning

The big accidents are just a groundhog day occurrence in Thailand as we all know and unfortunately expect to happen regularly.

I know it happens a lot, why people need to go so fast is beyond me, what ever happened to wanting to stay alive!! It's not just the Thai's I see the ER6n bunch and a few other big bike people with all there protective gear driving as if they are late for someone's funeral, it's crazy how fast these individuals go down the inside and outside of the traffic! up to them I suppose!!

Usually by the time you graduate up to a 650 anything you have learned skills enough to be competent to ride in between traffic without getting hit. It is legal in this country. But you still have to watch your ass as this country uses mirrors more to pick zits in between having their ears glued to a cellphone. The scooters are the biggest offenders- not enough power to get out of a bad situation compounded by the youngins burying the needle to the bone & lack of common sense when driving.

Same in Pattaya . 2 days ago I went by a scooter that got slammed in between a car & a truck. The girl decided to make a very quick maneuver when the truck crossed into the slower lane & the car merged into the faster lane She decided at the wrong time to punch it & the truck & car won dragging her on her back on the ground. It wasn't pretty & unfortunately I saw it all happen in front of me. I was in the left lane(slower traffic going to Kawasaki so I wasn't in directly in back of the melee.

Just about 100% of these accidents could be avoided if they would actually teach & force the riders to learn safety techniques & about common sense on merging using mirrors faithfully head checking & not ever assuming you are being seen ever. The stupid video they make you watch for the test does absolutely nothing to teach safety but deals more with a hiso Thai dude with road rage . A waste of 2 hours that can show people how to protect yourself & to promote safety when driving. Most scooter accidents are from doing brain dead things (that can be avoided) And driving around more brain dead preoccupied people that are prone to disasters.

The fault lies with the educators for not making sure that people are competent before they pass the test.If the girl that got hit recently in Pattaya would have had a proper training course she would have known to not take for granted both vehicles even saw her & she would not have tried to beat the car & truck by accelerating into the fray.

The guy 'driving' the motorcai walked away. Probably didn't even look to see how his lady passenger was.

I didn't see what happened to the girl as I was driving past in fairly heavy traffic, he whacked the SUV a fair rate of knots, hopefully they were both okay, it was right outside the hospital which is the only good thing about this!!

The English language doesn't account for farang smugness in Thailand where ego is enhanced by the cubic capacity of their ride. But true big may not really be a word used in a two vehicle collision. When I read "big bike crash" the size of the motorcycle did not enter my head. I don't really see anything wrong with the thread title.

You mentioned it was bangkok hospital. I hope they she has good insurance otherwise probably they will refuse to treat her and bring her to a government one

Is this a case of big-bike crash vs big bike-crash?

You mean the kind that people with low self-esteem and small appendages need to make them feel like big men?

For me a bike is a way to get around; nothing more nothing less. Where I live anything bigger than a 125-150 would be ridiculous to own.

Says the man who's profile states his location is "USA". Big block car engines, Boss Hogs, etc.....
