The insurance companies should obtain their evidence from police reports/sketch, there should be no requirement to wait until their arrival before moving the vehicles, but hey, this is Thailand where the police cannot be wholly trusted, especially if one of the drivers is a friend/relative/VIP.
Accidents at chalong circle daily with people who do not know how to use a roundabout and do not know the road rules or how to drive and its only going to get worse, and its not only Thai people who drive badly
You could be 1 of those bad drivers hey Peter.
Not likely, be wary of all other drivers and treat them as unqualified to drive which the which most are and not only Thais
One accident in 8 years and i was rammed in the rear by a 15 year old unlicensed rider on a unlicensed bike talking on his phone who wanted to flee the scene
Whats your driving record like??
I have not run into any motor bike or trucks in the last 7 years traveled 450,000 klm in my truck, 60,000 on my Wave, 40,000klm on my Yamaha SRX6.
I came to Thailand 2002 & have driven he M/C & pickup from day one.
To get any where in Bangkok you have to drive quick & weave left & right to go with the flow.
If you don't then it will take you 3 times as long to get any where.
