webfact Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Video: Two Thai trucks - are they in love.... or just annoying! Picture: Manager Online (Ten wheelers get up close and personal....) BANGKOK: -- Dash cam footage has been posted on Facebook that shows two large Thai trucks hogging both lanes of a two lane road. No one can get past and the road ahead is quite clear as the two vehicles seem to be exchanging sweet nothings, reported Manager Online. The poster of the clip - "Pharithus Theethong" can be heard to comment: "So you wanna be famous...here you go!" as he films from a dash cam in his vehicle. Manager Online said that driving behavior like this was annoying.....and surmised that perhaps the drivers were having a chat together. The footage had a date from years ago but Thai Rath said it was posted after the incident occurred at 4pm on Sunday on the road between Ban Bung and Phan Thong in Chonburi.

Ah, you mean like 12 years old elsewhere ...? Yes, highly annoying if you're not on a bike yourself, 10.- THB each case one comes across in say a decade and you could call me 'squareface'. Get a (traffic) po-lice that's worth the name (and salary), film them for proof & fine them accordingly ... works well in plenty other places ...

Possible. Much more likely: just 'village idiots' as Slaps ^^ reckoned. Shouldn't be behind a/any wheel, that much = for sure ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrTuner Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Just two lanes? The four or five lanes at the Chonburi intersection of highway 7 are more often than not occupied by buses and trucks side by side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobobo Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Why do we have to watch 6 year old videos? Surely you can subject us to something more relevant, such as the establishment of Happy Zones just two days from now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
