I'd say it's time to wrap yourself up in your duvet and get a netflix subscription, but the whole place is built on a swamp and it's only a matter of time before your condo falls around your ears too ????????

richard_smith237 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Its crazy... You’re not safe anywhere in this country. It seems you take more of a chance every time you go anywhere in this country than we do in our home countries. Either I’m paying attention more to these additional risk, especially now I am a parent, or, these events are happening a lot more or they are receiving more media attention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure that I'll meet my end in a traffic accident. There have been something like 20 accidents within 500 metres of my house, on a long straight road, that have involved death and lost limbs. Another worry is how much I'll have to pay after hitting a motorcycle with no back light at night. Every time I go out after dark I'll see three or four in just a 10-minute drive. Actually, I refuse to drive here. My wife does that and she's an excellent driver. I have no idea how that happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilotman Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 There are so many 7/11s in this country that it's a wonder that ever crash doesn't end up with a vehicle hitting one. There seems to be one 300 metres, on every road. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t drive at night outside of a city or town (i.e. on poorly lit roads) and always have a Dash-Cam on my car. I haven’t it a motorcyclist yet, but I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve saved one through emergency breaking ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistically you'll most likely die at home, so best be getting at least a two-storey home, or live in a condo - tho to be more safe don't go for the high rises, so should you fall it won't necessarily kill you x) Be safe gents, lol ????

Grumpy one Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Thai's are becoming so lazy. Looks like parking the car outside 7-11 and walking in is too hard these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpy 4680 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 7/11 s here automatic opening doors, guess this one failed. but joking aside, if every car in Thailand was automated, there would still be accidents, somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
