Our comment on this video: Of course, if you change lanes because of slow traffic in front of you very slowly and carefully, you don't need to indicate the direction or use the right-hand flashing lights. Another advantage of slowly changing direction is the passenger are not unexpectedly pushed off the loading area on this busy two-lane highway.
The red flag on the protruding parts probably means: Be careful, the hammer that holds the rope tightly can let go!
Big news on Thai television with funny picture: An overloaded car bent in the middle at a traffic light.
Unfortunately the bus was too high or perhaps the decorations hung too low. The bus driver then has to go backwards through the narrow street to find a new exit.
Fortunately, these local buses, the successor to the tuk-tuk, which also transport school children, are only allowed to drive slowly. Still not a good example from this person in the back on how to ride the bus. Don't imagine hitting a car from behind!
A few girls and a boy in the open air in warm weather on the back of the small truck. Not talking about catching a cold.
These people do not seem to be enjoying the ride, or is it the heat? Maybe it is the iron floor on which the people sit.
You see them everywhere riding in the back of a car. The window of the car is open, maybe the car does not have airco, so people like to sit in the fresh air with a strong cooling breeze.
On the way to work with all the tools and materials needed in the back of the pickup truck. The license plate of this car is unreadable maybe the black color is removed, something you see very often in Thailand.
This is a nice license plate, but the price is very high. You pay 25,000 Thai Baht at the registration office for the colors and the special number. Higher prices are not uncommon for similar license plates.
One of the endless number of small trucks that carry their passengers in the loading area.
Two workers with 18 solar panels on the car. One man standing and taking care of the solar panels. Let us hope that not only the solar panels arrive safely at their final destination.
About Road Safety: Sitting in the back of a small truck means: Driving without safety belt with all its consquences. The following beside other important means of road safety we see every day in Thailand (sorry to say): Driving in dark without light; overtaking a car on the wrong side; Drunk driving; On motor cycle not wearing a helmet; Driving a motor cycle underage; More than 2 persons on a motorcycle, specelly with little children; Using mobile phone when driving a car or a motorcucle. Amen!
