Another victim of the race track.

When in Pattaya I avoid this killer stretch with the scooter whenever possible.

A friend prefers it.

Strange to me.

Yes I too avoid it, preferring to use the Railway line bypass.

Never feel safe on the bike and too many large vehicles like coaches and trucks driving impatiently and recklessly.

Oh, surprise. The pickup driver didn't flee the scene.

25-30 yo Thai male? What do you think?

Fractured skull indicator of poor safety habits

I'm not sure what, if anything, you're implying. Yes, traffic accidents happen everyday everywhere. What makes them more deadly here (and any Third World country) is that many are riding on small motorbikes and even a small tap from a car, bus, or truck, will often cause them to loose control and cause an often fatal accident. In advanced countries, these accidents would be between two motor-vehicles and amount to mere fender-benders.
