kokopelli Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Here is a remarkable film of San Francisco taken in 1906 a few days before the city was hit by an earthquake. It seems that people back then had complete disregard for traffic and rules of the road much the same as in Pattaya today. https://www.livescience.com/61945-san-francisco-earthquake-footage-flea-market.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Fascinating. Also makes the roads of Pattaya look relatively sane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, 1906 SF had no traffic control system, In Pattaya they just ignore the one in place. kokopelli 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witty Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Their versions of the tuk-tuk appear to be quite agile. The streets are dusty and must be stinking with all the excrement and urine from the animals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. They stopped to let the horses use the toilet every few hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
