Thailand has a ton of vehicle accidents. There are many unskilled low paid drivers, that are pushed long hours.
To me road safety is not something practiced or carried out in Thailand.
I mean, look at the photo?
How do you drive up on top of a concrete barrier?
There have been crashes where a vehicle will run right into the back of another vehicle parked on the shoulder and full speed killing everyone on board.
In 2023, there were over 5,000 deaths on the roads in Thailand.
As an expat driver, defensive driving takes on a whole new meaning never.
Never, ever expect a Thai driver to do the right thing and always be on the lookout.
