Many are 2-cycles, burning oil along with gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oziex1 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 They had to move in and get a piece of the action. Are there laws in place for all of this is it just made up as they go on their merry way all the way to receiving the brown envelope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scot123 Posted January 28, 2020 Share Posted January 28, 2020 Both my vehicles I had in Thailand from new were well maintaine and driven conservatively would spew black smoke out of the exhaust if reved hard. My question is WHY? My suspicion was exhaust system not real/cheap as carbon should be burnt off and not accumulate or fuel is really bad. I would like to understand. (one was Triton 4x4 and one 4x4 everest 3.2). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget submarines, upgrade the fleet of public busses to Air-con cleaner running busses (they don’t have to be electric, just cleaner). Encourage more Public Transport use, improve the traffic flow, limit private vehicle use in the centers (i.e. congestion charges) and primarily, more than anything else, actually do something real about the burning of fields and factories that pollute. The issue with Thailands seasonal pollution is not caused by any single mode of transport / pollution but a whole combination of factors including the weather (the weather is the one part they are unable to control) the rest can be dealt with, fairly quickly if those in positions of power cared enough to apply continued pressure. They got new buses but they made a story up about tax issues. They since vanished from the docks. Not another word hurd. I think they sold them pocketed the money.
