Passing on the inside becomes necessity when so many Thai ignoramuses stay in the outside lane driving at speeds well less than 90. They should have their vehicles impounded and have long driving bans. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would take time to become normal, but not impossible with a higher police presence and public info bulletins. Slow moving traffic only on the left lane.

Cabradelmar Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Who is in charge here. The most dangerous place to drive just became more dangerous. I guess Thailand feels left out on all the covid deaths so needs to make up ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sitanonchai Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Who cares, couple of 1000 more deaths a year. We keep covid low so we can have some more deaths on the road. It all ads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Histavia Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 This is crazy - it actually increases the variety of speed differentials on Thai roads. I also overlooks the fact that Thai roads may LOOk like they are good for speed, but in reality they aren't, so a complicated set of rules and roads that are deceptive and unfit for speed inevitably will result in an increase in crashes.

Kenneth White Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) This is insane! The posted speed limit is 90 kph and most drivers are doing at least 110 kph, so if you raise the limit to 120 they will be doing 150 kph. More accidents more deaths. Maybe if there were more police or state troopers out on petrol and ticketing violators this would almost make sense.

teacherclaire Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Meanwhile motorcycles have an 80kph speed limit, though big bikes of 35kW or more have a 100kph ceiling. How would anybody with a big bike only ride in the second, perhaps third gear? I would fall asleep doing 100 km/h. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
