Anyone think there are too many baht bus?

Last count I heard there were 700-900, so YES, way too many baht buses! If all were filled to capacity maybe I wouldn't think this way, but when you see lots of them clogging the streets without anyone in them, maybe 20%-30% could do the same job.

The only way to get the message over is for the army to requisition a lot of land for the purpose of impounding vehicles...

 

They have already requisitioned the whole country!

Many do. They are mostly people that don't rely on baht buses. 

I seriously doubt the people that rely on baht buses think there are too many.

 

Next ... 

I get the feeling that many of the folks who complain about "too many baht buses" base their opinion strictly on the Beach Road/Second Road circuit.  To most of us who rely on baht buses, that is one of the least important routes, I think.

 

Baht buses that run up/down Thepprasit usually are 10 to 15 minutes apart.  Try catching a baht bus on Third Road -- there are *none*.  Ditto for Jomtien Second Road.  There definitely are not "too many baht buses" when you look at the big picture.
