Popular Post seajae 16,506 Posted January 22 Popular Post Share Posted January 22 Australias(every state) road death rate is around 1000 a year & that includes those that die after going to hospital, whats Thailand again & that does not include the ones that die after going to hospital. The problem in Thailand is the attitude of not giving a sh*t about anyone other road user and thinking they dont have to follow road rules or traffic signs/lights. Try going the wrong way along a road in Australia, drive without a licence/under age, dont indicate, run a red light, ignore traffic signs. speed, drive drunk, etc etc, the police would be all over you, here the police wont even drive/ride along the roads looking for offenders much less leave their air conditoned offices or work of a night. It all boils down to the attitude and thinking of the people as well as their education, Thailand is a great place to live but the road users are some of the worst in the world so we just have to allow for that and accept it but that doesnt mean people cant say anything about it. 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Usually a sign and solid yellow line from there. Link to post Share on other sites

Both the vehicle overtaking as well as the turning red one have their fair share. From the level of brain damage the driver in the red car leads as he seeming didn't care to look to the left at all.

Another Thai bash thread. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
