They drive like maniacs in Phuket. I have memories (early 2010s) of late-night drunken tuk tuk rides from Patong to Kata, on that dark and windy road, and if you're really intoxicated, you're at real risk of falling on the road. I don't know what it's like today but in those days, the infamous 'taxi mafia' were not a pleasant bunch and not to be messed with. Above all, the rule was to never dispute prices, even if you were getting ripped off (if you don't want to get ripped off, don't go to Phuket). RIP, young lad.
