Almer 1123 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 This report should have read Aqua-planned of the highway, a thai driver is oblivious to anything that can go wrong, ask one of your thai friend drivers what is meant by aqua planning and ask them to draw a tyre in relation to a wet road, i tried and it makes no sense to them. I was a big bus driver all over europe and except this from an experienced professional driver, when 18,000 kg starts to slide it is damage limitation time Link to post Share on other sites

Here he is praying and offering alms to the great Gods of Tourism. Seems the Gods are not impressed with with a few bananas grapes and so his promises and prayers have come unstuck already. From one fruit loop to more statistics of vegetables after traffic accidents. Link to post Share on other sites

natway09 5435 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 You would think TAT might really try & get the Government to do something about getting the Police & Transport Dept to do their job. This gets back to Italy another tourist source gone. It just goes on & on ,,,,,,,, Link to post Share on other sites

Ask Colinneil how immigration told his wife they were going arrest/deport him, while he was unconscious in hospital for weeks. Colinneil was not a tourist, was he? Thai wife. Tourists have no responsibility for TM30 reports and there has never been a report of immigration bothering them about such a report (unless perhaps they are residents using tourist visas), has there?

wisperone 1648 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 I have been on tour buses in Italy. Drivers were always highly skilled and safe. People coming from western countries unfortunately think that the bus drivers in countries they visit are equally skilled. Riding a bus in Thailand can be a fatal mistake. Never trust your life to a Thai bus driver. Just not worth the risk. Link to post Share on other sites
wisperone 1648 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 This is not the first story of Italians being injured or killed in Thailand this year. I wonder if the stories are getting back to the press in Italy for publication to warn potential visitors. I think the other recent story was the truck that recklessly flipped over on a Italian couple on a motorcycle and killed them. Link to post Share on other sites
