Agree there. Those things scare the hell out of me. I regularly use Chao Fa West and Wiset Roads and they thunder along at breakneck speed....I can't imagine one stopping in less than 2-300 metres when they are up at 120kph. Saw one run a red light the other day and everyone was literally diving for cover, cars driving off the road to get out of the way.
Sad to say, but I think the only thing that would make anyone pay any attention to doing anything about the driving here would be a truck ploughing through a market and killing scores of people.
