I hope the investigations go further than the driver... There was an accident in the UK where a tipper truck sped out of control down a hill due to brake failure, killing a four year old girl and 3 others. Last Thursday "Haulage boss Matthew Gordon, 30, and mechanic Peter Wood, 55, were found guilty at Bristol Crown Court" and spent Christmas in jail awaiting sentencing, The driver of the truck was acquitted. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-38404875 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The man from udon Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 At the end of the day it is the fat <deleted> owners fault.he tells the driver to get out there or get another job.thai people who become enriched become a greedy horrible creature who treat people like <deleted>.i blame the company and its owner more than the driver.

Elkski Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 IT seems odd the article mentions "100 % thai owned" as if that matters somehow? I feel that it implies that this poor guys life had more meaning than if he had a company that had partial foreign investment? I cant see any other relevance. The more I read TV and the news stories with this sort of things and the thugs smiling after beating a farang nearly to death the less I want to do more than a short visit in my future.

I let the brakepads change on my motorcycle at a motorcycle shop, front wheel, and every time I used the brakes I got a screaming noise. Went to the dealer and they changed the fake brake pads with the original Honda pads right away. Buy only original parts from that time on.

Lynch mob? How do you know this? Site a case here and then site a case in your home country. I might add that in most civilized countries leaving the scene of an accident is a serious crime. Wake up Thailand; searching for the drivers takes up valuable police time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, and tell the "engineers" to ONLY touch the brakediscs with washed clean hands and after working on them clean the discs with brake-cleaner. I had them service my brakes and they didn't work AT ALL because they were so greasy...went back to the shop and they even didn't have brakecleaner in a spraycan. This is a very big Honda dealer, not some somchai around the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joepattaya1961 Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 one very important part of the brakes is the foot that is supposed to hit it. so in that respect one is allowed to talk about a brake failure...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elkski Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 best to do your brakes yourself... and yes its best to handle the pads with those nitrile gloves and must clean the rotor metal with brake cleaner and even have the surfaces machined if needed. What are fake pads? In the US we have many aftermarket choices for pads. Original OEM pads are not used that much overhere. Some are better wear than others.. Metalic, ceramic, etc. I prefer best stopping power. In the last couple decades it has become so cheap to buy new rotors or drums from china that many times you do that rather than turn your parts. I prefer to turn mine as long as I can and then buy the best brand . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
