hobobo Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

csabo Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Mr Money Bags Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 A truly pointless, ridiculous and VERY potentially deadly stunt which should not in any way be encouraged.

The Deerhunter Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Smartphones for stupid people, it used to be once upon a time people actually learnt photography but now everyone is a photographer, their phones are smart what a pitty they aren't, portrait v's landscape. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare that m/c would be the only type of vehicle involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
