It must be a fantastically great adrenaline rush to know that you might have the possibility to die or get crippled for life at any given time. Congratulations! You just made your way in to the Top 10 Stupid Hall of Fame. Hardly stupid. I survived unscathed. Injury or death happens often, even driving within the law.

You would penalise the guy who had an accident but being a total <deleted> yourself. Sad dreamer. This guy didn't have an accident, he begged for one. Imagine if every road user drove like that; maybe in your world that's the norm. Sad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that "mai pen rai" was there again and made it less important in both Thailand and in your eyes.

Maybe you also believe that it´s all okey to let school kids drive without a license, and you also think that the parenting in that case was superior. In that case I would assume that you are quite lonely on your planet. Pffft,...when my wife was doing her drivers license in Chiang Mai, just a couple of years ago, she had 2 guys in her class who were driving for over 20 years without drivers license !!!!! and from the 80 + people in her class most came with a car or motorbike.......and that is before they got passed or failed the tests.......?!?!? Food for taught !?!?!?! ....this is the planet we live on here in Thailand........ Best regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because I don´t post for likes. I speak an opinion, and just doesn´t care what you think about it. Just like a forum is supposed to work. You don´t post for people to like you. You post for voicing an opinion, and discuss differenses in opinions. Still my rep is excellent according to the forum.

puukao Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 this is NOTHING. Not that fast, not a bad fall........good to test boundaries. The key is to hit 150 and draft just a few inches off the bike in front of you..... then be prepared to turn it up a notch!!!! the old expat who smokes 100 packs a day and is with 10 ladyboys a night is worse than this kid....

Good to test the boundries, on an open and public road? Maybe it´s time for somebody to test the boundries of sanity, at the closes psychiatric ward. Oopsss! The old expat that smokes 100 packs a day, will sure die after 15 packs and smoke the rest after rigor mortis. If you have 10 ladyboys a night, you are still not actively trying to kill anybody else than yourself, assuming you are responsible there too and use a condom. Recommendation: Don´t drink water between the ladyboys. Then death is coming quicker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thailand49 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 This type of behavior goes on all over the world, Kids will be Kids the big difference here in Thailand is a very small chance of ever being caught. The % upcountry is even smaller so whenever there is a lack of enforcement and the human element takes over you got what you got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonmoon Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Some of these kids are so young they might not even have licenses to have it taken away. Parents should be punish by having the bikes and their licenses taken away and a big hefty fine so they feel enough pain to restrain and control their children.

I couldn't disagree with you more. If there is a big chance of them getting caught over here then why is it year after year they are rank near the top which of their death 80% is said to be the number for motorbike. You contradict yourself since if enforcement is working the number should be dropping. Living here for over ten years I've never seen a policemen in a vehicle or motorbike stop at drivers who is speeding or driving reckless. In checkpoint as many know they are after helmet, while the speeding driver speeds by. Edited February 20, 2017 by thailand49 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Living here for over ten years I've never seen a policemen in a vehicle or motorbike stop at drivers who is speeding or driving reckless. In checkpoint as many know they are after helmet, while the speeding driver speeds back. By getting caught i meant, die early.A little sarcasm on my part.
