Ignorance is bliss...

Just ignore us, your honor...

didn't get the memo...

don't seem to be able to accurately recall the sequence of events leading up to this particular ignorance...

have no knowledge of any ignorance used by anyone on anything...

arai wa (what)?

it's a lot of fun to reverse officialdom tactics.

If the photo is a true rflection they at least have helmets for the passenger something the others dont have. Thailand needs competition so good on them
