Pattaya28 Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Quote: " There had been 259 motorcycle accidents with 254 of them not wearing crash helmet" 98% not wearing crash helmets says it all really. 29% drunk. Assuming the 29% were in the 98%, that leaves 2% with a brain. And if the stats are under-calculated 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya Pat Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 So a 3 year old biy lost his life in the name of 'fun' Sickening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevkev1888 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 So a 3 year old biy lost his life in the name of 'fun' Sickening. Bit of an assumption there. There are no details on the death of the 3 year old, apart from the fact that it happened between the 11th and the 19th. If someone dies in a road traffic accident, traveling to visit family during a peak holiday travel period, such a Christmas in the UK. Do we blame Santa?

joepattaya1961 Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Songkran is from the 13 up until the 19th yes? Luckily there wasn't a minivan crash on the 11th.........would have been bad for statistics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
