webfact Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Patent pending! Electric samlor wows the internet! Picture: Tnews TNews reported on a video that is wowing the Thai internet that shows two men riding in an electric tricycle they have made themselves. The Thai media said that it has disc brakes and can be plugged in like a phone. Even big bikes get out of the way and keep to the left when this baby comes along, they said. The video came from Yutthapong Thipaksorn on Facebook and appeared to be based in the province of Buriram in Thailand's north-east.

yellowboat Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Seen three such things in Cambodia. One was solar powered. They are handy. After a night on the town in Beijing, three lovely young women gave me a ride home in one. There should be more of them everywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isaanbanhou Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I hated all the electric golf carts and trikes in China, they drive on the sidewalk and up the street silently behind you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PETERTHEEATER Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Let's applaud the electric powered vehicle and ignore that it has no tax, no mandatory insurance, no lights no registration plates , illegally carry passengers, no safety helmets......Wait, what am I saying?......Oh, silly me it's the independent nation of Buriram where Thai law does not apply.

Or at least launch it into space and have it orbit a suitable planet. Uranus would probably be best. Stick a fake Somchai in flip flops on it with a bottle of Lao Khao and put Thailand in the space race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumbastheycome Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 On TVF is an obvious target for the knockers! So go on then...ignore the initiative, the fact that it works, that it's creators are probably uneducated practical people who succeeded in something made of scrap. Be content in your scathing negativity as an excuse for buying or wanting to buy a Lexus simply because you are too lazy or ignorant to bother personally doing the simple tasks the service contract does for you at at superfluous cost. I prefer to congratulate them even if the unit is not completely unique. No less so that the home built wheelchair accomodating self drive units I have seen. Necessity is the mother of good invention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
