They really have their priorities backwards haven’t they ?! ????????‍♂️ Instead of learning and training people on how to drive plus having an effective police force in place who do what they’re supposed to do like stopping unlawful thai drivers and the like plus just to mention replacing ancient over polluting trucks and buses then upgrading their whole railway network they’re thinking of buying such planes ( which they won’t even be able to use ) Just so they can show it off to the Chinese ?! Brainless to put it simple ????

It is indeed another avoidable and sad death, may you race in heaven Keith ???????? I’m sure some of you may have ridden or driven on the Bang Na- Trat road going to Pattaya from Bkk at some point.. I tend to commute on this dangerous and frightening road and I so much dread it. I notice all sort of near misses whether among trucks, cars, <deleted> ups and scooters. Apart from not giving the adequate distance to each other they all ride up close to your rear end ! I try no to get boxed in with the trucks and I always look for an exit an escape route ( To find some slow car, scooter or whatever in front ???? ) It is like being at seas here the big fish eats the smaller, this is their logic. It’s not about having any traffic rules or regulations, respect and observe who else is on the roads or common sense for that matter. I often see vehicles of any size and shapes pulling in onto these 3 - 4 lanes highways cutting right across the lanes in front of you not thinking or even caring who else is there ????????‍♂️ I’m not quite sure what the Thai logic is ( Providing they’ve got any ) I believe that these people have a death wish or they’re just kamikaze since anyone who has a functional mind could and should think and look several times before changing lanes. There’s not a proper training given at the DLT with regards to driving safely according to highways rules and regs hence all the young generations just follow what other do not matter how dangerous it is ! As for me, I’ve never been so frighten to ride a motorcycle (700cc ) As I’m in this country, I have to be super alert and riding defensively at all times but what scares me the most is how close to you they drive/ride.. They give themselves little or not room for breaking distance reaction time, everyone is in hurry and literally hardly anyone looks out for dangers or who else is on the roads. I reckon they just expect people to slow down for them whether they pull out of a Soi or pulling in onto bigger roads cutting across the lanes, what kind of mindset is that ?! You’ve got to look hard and long enough plus give the right of the way to the oncoming traffic not against it ????????‍♂️

This kid literally got away with a murder, apart from riding someone else motorcycle, probably without insurance and whatever else ????????‍♂️ Now, just imagine if a foreigner, farang, westerner however the name us all was involved in this motorcycle accidents, surely they would’ve thrown the jail keys away unless you’d pay millions of baths ????????‍♂️ This is just so wrong ! I feel truly sad for the doctor who at least crossed the pedestrian lines ( probably without looking as the often do ! ) Who left her young life on the worn out tarmac ????

I’m not entirely sure who’s written this post in the begin with. I suppose they’re just gathering data and thoughts from all of us since it’s too generalist..???? I very much doubt that the intended person has had a good amount of time spent together whether with a Thai or Western woman for at least 2 years and just to mention personalities traits, backgrounds and cultures of each one. I eager to meet a down to earth independent well cultured western woman with whom I can have all sorts of conversation with, share interests with and doing more together but also with regards to being emotionally supportive towards each other, no to mention all sorts of other positive things that I miss by not being with a western woman. I reckon even the dumbest western woman may turn up to be way more intelligent than the smartest Thai woman altogether. This being said, it also depends what kind of woman you’re looking for and where you’re actually looking since there are good and bad apples all over the show. As for me, I definitely don’t need someone who puts the toothpaste on my toothbrush either or is obsessed with cleanness throughout the house and then useless at many other things IE, proper meaningful conversation. At home, I can easily manage it all by myself as I always did since I left home, which includes cooking, sawing, ironing and so on.. While I’m attracted by Asian women I never wish to sleep with a dead lazy fish who’s also incapable at love making. Besides the bed, there is no fair common grounds in every respect no matter which way you look at it, they’re just too thick, most are lazy, slow and dumb for my liking, in the end you just got a pretty face, a doll while the brain is dead hence subdued by her culture and their family in their continue pursue of money ????????‍♂️ Bear in mind, no matter how long to you’ve been married to a Thai woman, things among you lot will never be fair, it’s a lose - lose predicament, in the end you’re just a provider or supposed to be and remember that you come just after the dog in terms of importance and respect in the typical Thai family mindset. Nevertheless, the saying never judge a book by its always applies in every cultures. As for my Asian women preferences I would love to have a Japanese girlfriend in the first place then a Philipino, Korean or a Chinese one ????????‍♀️ Each to their own ????????

Nothing is never going to change in a positive way if the police doesn’t act as such and start to stop & fine the Thais for a change, whether on their scooter ( who drive against the traffic, jump the red lights continuously and needless to say wear a proper helmet not those plastic egg shells that they wear or whilst driving their car watching their phone instead of looking who’s around them ???? Lots of work to be done on implementing a proper driving training to start with but where are you going to find clued up Thai instructors ????????‍♂️ As a biker myself, the most fun is to ride fast into the bends leaning over with a knee down but these could never manage to ride that way since they can’t even ride/drive in a straight line for a few minutes ????????‍♂️

When it gets that rough and you feel that your life or any of your limbs are in danger you best run fast !!! Providing you can make it far enough from the attackers since the multiply by ten fold ! I do find it indeed dangerous to hang out on your own in Thailand whether you’re having a beer or a smoke, especially if you’re a westerner needless to say, all the eyes are on you scrutinising every move you make. I always find this scenario quite intimidating since you’re the most vulnerable and without any protection whether from the police or anyone who would take your part..????

How many of these truck drivers and the like get away with a murder on a daily basis, literally ?! Its always the same issue, total anarchy on Thai roads, nobody cares and what about the police ..?! Nowhere to be seen ????

Show time again ???? ?! If only they were slightly serious about enforcing any sort traffic laws, they should be visible and active on the roads as they do in any other civilised country. They’d surely make millions of bath just off the reckless suicidal not looking where they’re going Thai bikers who regularly jump the red lights, drive against the traffic and the like happening right in front of the police nose but why on earth do they always let their own people get away with everything is beyond my understanding, what is the point of repeating the same mistakes all the time, you’ll have the same results more deaths ????????‍♂️

Wow I’m seriously shocked by this gentleman’s statements ???? I hope they will not censure him for stating the truth for a change ! Hard to find any truths with the mess and confusion they made out of this Covid nonsense ????????‍♂️ Needless to say say, I’m delighted that finally someone who’s got some salt in his head spoke up ! Although mind you he happens to be a business man after all, so perhaps some if not all of his business are suffering just a little ???? Keep at it Sir, make your voice to be heard by the government’s deaf ears ????????

I’m not sure what’s the catch here ???? It is indeed a very misleading article! If this was half truthful we would all be multimillionaire in a quickest ever manner ???? Literally 99.9% are at fault and that’s including the police who doesn’t drive any better, just the other day they pulled out of a Soi without looking who else was on the road, how typical ???? if I hadn’t used my brakes in time, I would’ve driven over them ????????‍♂️ I still can’t figure out what’s the logic of not looking and caring who’s around you ????????‍♂️ I very much doubt anyone who is not thai would make any pennies out of thai people ????

Disgraceful and selfish of him and Thailand ☹️ never listen never learn, typical Thai behaviour ???? it’s all about their own interests and what they can get out of you and the remaining nature without giving anything to anything or anyone ????

I’m glad such professor acknowledged the several dangers on Thai roads which some are just like a mirror, you can literally see yourself in it ! I’m not sure if anybody is paying attention or even listening what he’s talked about.. ????However, we’re well aware of the misuse word “ motorcycle “ They actually mean scooters not motorcycle, get this right once for good, will you ?! ???? Why on earth blaming everything else expect their impatient, selfish and kamikaze attitude they have whether they rider a scooter a car or even a truck ! Why even mention Trees ????????‍♂️ Their are faultless, it’s your way of driving/ riding that is at fault ! The lack of proper police enforcement then no proper scooter/ motorcycle/ car training hence idiots riding against the traffic and needless to mention not looking as if it was just a normal thing to do, especially when coming out of a Soi without paying attention to the oncoming traffic whilst entering the main road carriageway expecting you to slow down for them ( This is the most dangerous malpractice about then that drives me crazy angry ! ) Prior to coming to this grind I’ve ridden and raced motorcycles ( 500 to 1000cc ) I so much miss riding a proper bike but I’m very hesitant from buying one here due to the roads conditions and how dangerous they are whilst driving/ riding it’s total anarchy out there ! I’ve never been so frightened to ride anything in this country. By the way, I’m compelled to mention that speed isn’t such a major issue if you drive fully aware and respectfully towards other drivers, this means paying attention who’s around you ! People should also know that slower speeds causes more accidents since they get distracted on their phones, TV monitors they’ve got installed in their cars/ scooters. Please note that if you’re riding whether a scooter or a motorcycle in good decent speed you go straight over the pothole not in it !!! I’ve had plenty of those at high speed but never sunk in it ????????‍♂️ Sadly, I have a premonition that things will never change if they don’t change their attitude, proper driving/ riding exam and needless to say police who actually do their job accordingly ! ????????‍♂️

Jeez ????????‍♂️ How desperate can you get ?! Always looking in the wrong places and needless to say thinking backwards ????????‍♂️

Respectful Tribal people and the like are way ahead of these people who believe in hamlets, trees blessed sacred and God knows what other nonsense works for them, it’s not wander why they live in a bubble of their own ????????‍♂️

Unless you are a British citizen in a desperate need of going back to dark land why would you want to go to the UK anyways ????????‍♂️ I reckon this is just a money making speculation, unsurprisingly ! it’s a mega rip off rainy and dingy place, you must be insane to live there ????
