tragickingdom Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 It is all quite understandable not only is a helmet for the plebs, it is also meant to protect a brain. If you don't have one or only half a brain you subsequently do not need a helmet a cap will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cumgranosalum Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Head injuries from bike accidents cost Thailand billions of baht every year - you'd have thought that either he or his advisors would have picked up on this before embarking on yet another PR fiasco.

arrowsdawdle Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 It never gets old laughing at Pheu-Thai supporters criticising the junta for any small thing when their own cronies were the most dishonest bunch of villains I ever saw. The word 'hypocrite' doesn't even come close. Clearly a case of sour grapes because their fringe benefits got cut. So, is your real name Loo?

Patanawet Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Not a criminal of any sort for not wearing a helmet while riding in private grounds. Anyone can do what they like on a private road. As you say Maejo. Why don't people read all the words in a report before rushing to their keyboards for their little bit of glory, seeing their words in print on a message board? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hanno Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Some people need to chill a little. The guy went for a little joyride, he had a little fun. Did he break the law? Sure, but I wonder how many of the people here indulging in the usual bashing have ridden without a helmet or seatbelt or under the influence? I ma sure Thailand has bigger problems......

jaywalker Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 So this geezer steals a small "big bike" and goes for a joyride, not wearing a helmet, threatening people to run them over if they stand in his way and it's all OK?

Fat Haggis Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 A big bike? A 250 is hardly a big bike, but this is a pretty good story and I've had a good chuckle at the PMs sudden rashness and spontaneous jolly!! Good for him, apart from the fact he's a criminal as he broke the law for not wearing a helmet isn't that right? Of course he's not a criminal, he's not been found guilty of any crimes, he's justba regular law breaker like another farang who constantly posts crap here about the 7% and uses words like criminals to describe those people who break the law, so this would make the PM a criminal ? Sounds a bit like the time one of the princes in the UK took a vehicle for a spin, leaving Bodyguards behind. I like this story, and the PMs human touch of being "naughty" makes a change from him causing issues elsewhere ? Not a criminal of any sort for not wearing a helmet while riding in private grounds. Anyone can do what they like on a private road. And I suppose taking someone else's bike without their permission isn't a crime either? ? I don't have an issue with this story as I said earlier but what's amazing is some posters definitions are in stark contradiction to what open source definitions are. From a health and safety point he shouid have been wearing a helmet no matter what speed he got up to, and the asinine comments no need, try telling that to a high rope access guy who would be tossed from a job without adequate PPE, you think in reality a hard hard is going to save your life from a fall upwards of 100M's? Doesn't matter if this is private or public property either, the Thai statistics for head trauma caused by RTCs on motorbikes/mopeds is quite high as opposed to countries where stringent laws about the wearing of helmets is also law. He's a right rogue though isn't he? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northernphil Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 So.....next time The Royal Police stops me because of no helmet, I'll tell them that I was just testing my bike and no fine Yep ,we all need to take a print of this prick...Sorry pic with us so we can put it with our driving permit and say to the BIB " Look ,same same as your PM " Saying that , I wouldn't even go to Tesco Lotus 1k away without a crash hat.

Alwyn Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 This, with 6 times the cubic centimeters, is a bike ... The PM was riding a trainer. Yes that is a big bike for old people. Rice burners have twice the power for half the cubic centimeters. Just like many US things its big makes a lot of sound but does not really preform Except, that bike is a rice burner..

trainman34014 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Would be a lot more sensible for him to ride a Bicycle to work every day as a lot of European Politicians do and set a better example of how to save fuel and help the Environment.

bheard Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 So if I now "test" my motorcycle, it's ok not to wear a safety helmet? This man gets more stupid each day! A great road safety opportunity missed! Mind you his skull is so thick, he probably would be unaffected if he fell on his head! Spot on - the guy is a tosser!

catweazle Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Looks like Prayut joined in actively with the "discover thainess" campaign... What's this lesson on thainess? All are equal, but one is "equaller", or what? Perhaps an attempt by him to show the world that he can be funny - but what an epic fail this one was! He could round it out with some brainless babble on telly explaining himself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
