Last night I was hit by a motocycle on the foot path on Sukhumvit road between soi 22 and 18 ,not serious but I was very angry there are motocycles flying down the path with people having to get out of their way.

This morning after dropping my son off at school coming back between Emporium and soi 22 there are many on the foot path.

What happened to this new law on stamping down on this activity.

stamping /clamping /wan-ing it all ends in a mess

i am determined to make my 800 by tomorrow so look out any naff posters

Bangkok Metropolitan Council (BMC) announced the opening today of a PO Box to receive complaints. The box number is 5555 .

I suggest asking 3 friends and yourself of course to complain to this box about motorcycles on the sidewalk. Then have each of them ask 3 friends. I have been knocked down twice in 6 years and injured my knee badly. I intend to flood the box. stamps are cheap here. I am also asking Thais i work with to complain to this box also. Maybe many complaints are received they will do something about enforcing the law.

Dear orchidlady,

I understand your concerns but I suspect that either YOU are having a good laugh, or somebody is having a good laugh over the supposed address for complaints.

Sorry to Spoil your fun but for the benefit of new arrivals in Land Of Smiles,The Post Box number, 5555 = Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Best of luck.

I just leap on the back and enjoy the free ride. They don't know I'm there.

I'm not laughing and this was reported in the other English language newspaper yesterday.
