They don't seem to care about the LOSOs either, other than talk. Suppose the racing will continue as usual..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Geoffggi Posted February 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted February 19, 2020 If the police did their job correctly there wouldn't be any 13 year old riding motorbikes this is why other countries have rules and regulations which are policed correctly. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was lately in Pattaya after a 6 years break. What a change! Never seen so many motorcycle riders without helmet. Just shows that traffic law enforcers prefer their aircon station than enforcing laws. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, that's just darling. The little Honda wave noise boys paying tribute to one of their own, just like the big boys. Those are some tough little cookies. His mommy must be very proud.

Burma Bill Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 No motorbike gangs here in Siem Reap - roads too narrow, rough dirt, broken or potholed for such noisy behavior - bliss!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmitch Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Is it just me getting older and grumpier or are there more and more extremely noisy motorbikes and scooters on Phuket's roads? Absolute pain in the backside, and it's not just locals; the French North Africans also seem to have a penchant for such machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
