Paint a cop!

Spray a cop with car spray paint when he tries to get pocket money instead of it going to the revenue department ---hospitals schools etc.

This is an incredibly positive first step. When the public starts to stand up, and demand change, progress, initiative, work, public safety, and other things, of a lazy, apathetic, lethargic and underperforming government, things will begin to change. Whether it is at the local, state, or federal level. Hopefully we will see more of this happen. The power should be in the hands of the people. The government should listen. Is anyone listening?

Put speed bumps at zebra crossings

YES!. Just after the "40 - SCHOOL ZONE" SIGN!!

They need some lollipop ladies and gents. Must be lots of old timers looking to earn a few baht and the gratitude of vulernable kids and their worried parents

Agree with your sentiments.

It could have been written using other terminologies though.

This Thailand after all.

I must have lost something in translation. This is Thailand. 99% drivers have no idea what a crossing is for.

The only people I ever see at crossings are central bang na security guards trying to stop people using the zebra crossing and just waving traffic on.

The only way to cross is to ignore them and cross on masse.

Their concern is not for pedestrians but just to keep the traffic flowing.

'Their concern is not for pedestrians but just to keep the traffic flowing.' And no legal standing, whatsoever, to interfere in traffic movement.
