The Teacher Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Impatience , give way to the right, Red light means STOP better still its Green the other way and a total lack of road knowledge by all in this video. Can not see how a order from GENERALS wont do a thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I can’t see how some people who went flying through the air survived. I am going to try and avoid motorbike taxis in the future. No, when people go 'ragdoll' like that, there will not be many happy endings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your life that important that you can't slow down and get where you are going a minute or two later. Most of them have no place they have to be, it's just the way they roll.

notasmartassknowitallfarag Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I really want to reconsider how to travel around Thailand. Most lethal in order I’m guessing is.... 1Motorbike 2 Mini vans ( because the drivers go too fast) 3 Cars 4 Buses Is bus travel the ‘safest’? (obviously they crash too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4737 Carlin Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Most of these accidents could have been avoided if the vehicles had been travelling at slower speeds. Its why civilized countries have, and enforce, speed limits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just Pattaya, but today in Khon Keen some lottery(or drunk)guy, who looked no younger than 70, pulled out in front of me with what looked like his grand daughter on the back. If it wasn't for my radar and auto braking system he could have been hit. I have a m/c but would never drive it in a city, apart from Sunday. Seen so many deaths over the years. Are Sundays immune from crashes? ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would suggest that an anticipated 6 figure attendance at a Motogp event to watch Rossi , Marquez , Lorenzo et-al blasting 220 mph missiles around a track will leave a lasting impression on yer average Somchai yoof who upon leaving the event may well wish to emulate what they have just witnessed on their Honda Waves with predictably disastrous results particularly if they choose to try copying Marquez's death or glory riding style .. That's all I'm sayin' .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more people who realise that riding a motorcycle is inherently dangerous the better. It may add extra caution to their riding habits and save their lives. Or you can just go on pretending that it won't happen to you. Exactly what I meant. Climb on an underpowered scooter on roads congested with careless, uneducated people driving with impunity to any laws and you have a very good chance ending up like a crash dummy having little control over your fate. To think otherwise I believe would be ignorant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong, A lack of intelligence is actually believing that riding a moto in Pattaya is not inherently dangerous. Especially in comparison to a 3 ton SUV. You must have studied physics here in Thailand. Best of luck to you on your scooter, knock yourself out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mserror Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Just falling and hitting your head on a hard surface can kill, speed is not required. Everyone should learn this, and those who will not wear correct helmets correctly secured, must be fined, to pay for the cost to society of head injuries. Similar to taxes on smokes and alcohol. Economists can calculate what the fines should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKr Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 I do not remember waiting at that crossing in Pattaya, without anyone trying something stupid. Maybe it were worthwhile to analyse the traffic flow and start adjusting the crossroads accordingly, instead of showing this funny, if it were so sad, compilation and not address the underlying cause ( I know, there is no cure for stupidity. ).

As least you know I was referring to you, whichever way it was spelt. You took the effort to screen capture 2 young people experiencing an horrific ordeal and then upload the images onto a public forum for what you probably consider has entertainment value. I still stand by my word. Maybe one day it will be you flung 15 ft into the air, ripped apart, videoed and others given the chance to click the, ha, ha button to your suffering.
