As you haven't been able to notice the "less" tour buses and traffic already, you probably couldn't notice less taxis either. Shrewd TVF posters know that nothing gets better, only worse, in the inevitable, irreversible downhill spiral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 My bus didn't stop straight away when I pressed the buzzer. It went an extra 30 yards and stopped at a bus stop. This was on Beach Road this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember once walking approx 2 miles along sukhumvit road and I overtook an ambulance with it's lights and siren on. By the end of my journey I had left it well and truly behind me. With my heart thinking for the lives lost in this country due to poor response Nothing in the least new there. Pattaya causes SO much hand wringing among the righteous here on our beloved forum. I was transported to emergency via ambulance last night. Sukumwit was a mess, a Thai said "Thailand does not have good heart" as cars refused to clear the road for an ambulance with sirens and flashing lights.

mcfish Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I will be impressed when they activate the lights at zebra crossings on beach road. Why why are they dead, makes no sense. Sent from my SC-01D using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they used to have them on Pattaya beach road, but anywhere else? The ones that start in Pattaya Tai-2nd Road intersection usually end up in Soi Chayapruek in Jomtien. The ones that start in Jomtien, usually end up going to Pattaya Beach Road from the start of it The ones that start in Pattaya Tai usually end up going to the Sukhumvit end of Pattaya Tai The ones that start in Pattaya Nua usually end up going to the Sukhumvit end of Pattaya Nua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The manic Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I thought the whole point of baht buses was that they stopped anywhere and were not limited to bus stops. The authorities dealing with dangerous overcrowding would be useful but other stuff is nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The army is doing what the police should have been doing... Let the police do their job ... and the army can oversee the police. 6 weeks boot camp for cops not doing their job. The police is very busy Christmas season patrolling the beach and looking for ice cream vendors to get some money from. I wonder what the heavy traffic of farang was on the 23rd in and out the police box. It seems like they had a paper in hand and went in to pay something. I was standing outside waiting for my friend using the bathroom on the other side and it was raining so I stand outside the window, the blinds was closed but you could see in on an angle and the time I stand there approx 10 min 6-7 farangs went in and quick outside again.

So that you can have a clue where there are going to and dont go for the best bid? How about the traffic light installed a few years ago that nobody cares about? I saw yesterday that the busses trafficking jomtien had new signs on them with Naklua-jomtien South and Naklua Jomtien North that I didn't see before.
