MB1 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 RIP to those deceased....More waste of life.... I remember many years ago in Pattaya after a night in soi 8 and 7 and got a motor cycle taxi to go home and nearly got wiped out on 3rd road, I don't use motor bike taxis any more, I either get a taxi/car or my own Baht bus and pay what they want, far safer....No protection what so ever on a bike....

jacko45k Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Near where I live, and close to the also dangerous Hwy 36. At night not well lit, and often we have motorcycles (sometimes cars) heading the wrong way on the dual carriageway (carriages separated by the railway line). Many vehicles whizz through the junctions without care, Bangkok plated cars and large vehicles seem to do this. Sad for lives to be wasted like this due to selfishness and lack of consideration. I hope the car driver is strongly punished but I am not expecting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya28 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 At the junctions on this by-pass 1. No priority to either direction 2. No "give-way" signage 3. Dim street lighting 4. Traffic traveling against the flow 5. Motor-Bikes no tail-lights 6. Excessive speed 7. Intoxicated drivers. What can really be expected ? Carnage !!!

The Beguiled Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 What is it with all the road deaths in Pattaya? Almost every day you hear of a fatality. RIP to the deceased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtycash Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 i stupidly bought a house a few years ago on the east side , i then sold it 1 year later when i realised just how dangerous it was to cross from sukumvit road with wife and my baby daughter in a car everyday even worse on a motorbike. i was not prepared to take that risk. within 1 year on 3 trips up to isaan to see wifes family we seen 2 fatal crashes where people had been killed so that made my mind up.

inzman Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 The suspected drunk driver name is "lit", how fitting. Luxury car, Toyota ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagittarius6999 Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 Why does the report say the driver is "suspected of being intoxicated" surely the police tested the driver and it is a straight yes or no or do they want some wriggle room and check the size of the bung before stating yes or no.
