Locals are involved in fatal accidents regularly through falling asleep, overtaking on blind bends, drink, drugs, lack of common sense etc etc etc. Hence #2 in the world for road fatalities. My statement is not ridiculous, You read what I said ok , I said foreign drive badly did not say they have bad accidents did I . i know all about the s??? thai driving.

off road pat 2145 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I said already in in another blog,....those cement mixers are killers.! they are payed by the trip ! so if they go fast they might get another trip....I saw them daily on Koh Samui driving around Samui main road like they are in a hurry... those morons drive a cement mixer like they drive a car without any knowledge about the distance needed to stop at any speed with or without a big load !!!! they are accidents to happen sooner or later !!!

Redline 4789 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 The government and the police should be held liable for non performance~not enforcing the laws of the country. If there is not going to be enforcement, remove the laws so people know not to come here, and remove the doubt of selective enforcement. Thailand will be number one in deaths on the road this year because the militias in Libya are a bit more quiet. Link to post Share on other sites

That's exactly the issue. We drive through that area all the time. There's a cement factory close by. My wife and I have seen those trucks racing back to their factory on numerous occasions. The drivers zig zag through traffic, like they're driving a sports car. We try to keep as much distance as possible from those trucks. They're as bad as the van drivers.

natway09 5710 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Very sad. Did the concrete truck driver have a commercial heavy truck drivers licence or was he about to get one??? Ministry of Transport & Police totally ineffectual, fire the lot & start from the beginning Link to post Share on other sites

Oh and disregard for the safety of others and ignorance when it comes to risk. Hardly a day goes by when im driving in Thailand that i dont feel like smashing someone in the face because they've come close orphaning my son through bad driving. I agree. Everywhere I see police stopping motorists for no helmet or other minor infractions. NEVER have i seen a single one out there targeting bad and dangerous driving. Only when our "awesome" BIB understand the problem, and address it will these horrific accident start to reduce. Can't collect bribes from a corpse I guess, and therein lies the problem. Generate cash from roadside stops, but stopping idiots doesn't pay. Link to post Share on other sites
