How many Thai kids can you fit on a motorbike?

[Thaivisa Video]

To be fair, it is probably safer than taking a mini van...

[rondii]

Good on them...rather they doing that than sitting at home playing videogames

[hobobo]

I only counted 7. In Issan, where they generally drive by the age of 10, they would get 8 or even 9 on a bike!

[Inn Between]

That's quite a hill they're climbing for the last part of the video.

At least Thais have some experience with riding overloaded bikes and local traffic. I saw a falang jackass and his falang jackass wife with their 4 kids on a motorbike not long ago. The kids ranged from 3 to 6. Not one helmet among 6 passengers. A helmet would not have saved the parents from me if I had my way with them.

Now you mention incident here drunk farang 10 minutes ago crashed his motorbike into a thai rider neither parties wearing skid lids, helmets strapped to handlebars more or less to say I'm driving with a crash helmet legally.

The British can go one better (or is it two - I lost count).

Safer if they were wearing HELMETS!

This country is not know for "safety on the road".

I mean a country thats gives you are 50% discount on road violations over the busiest times of the year, where others countries double it to try and avoid deaths on the road... parkin priceless!!

Oh yeh..what was one of the reasons I came to live in Thailand....to get away from the control freaks like you who want to legislate and control everything we do...

[Mr Money Bags]

A truly pointless, ridiculous and VERY potentially deadly stunt which should not in any way be encouraged. Just look at how high the center of gravity is.

Thank you God/Allah/Buddha/Whatever for preserving these dimwit's lives.

You're Welcome!!

For the first half I was trying to adjust my screen rotate. BTW 74% of Thai road deaths involve m/c's. I reckon minivan busses must be second. Most seem to have a death wish and (mostly) the right amulet. Scary how lucky they are on blind corners.

74% Thai road deaths involve m/c's and probably at least one or more >=4 wheel vehicle. Rare that m/c would be the only type of vehicle involved.

The answer is - without a doubt - * Always One More! *

You are too Funny
