Even though I believe the majority of Thai drivers had a gun under their seat I found them a lot more courteous than these road raged horn bibbing wankers in most other countries.
The main secret to staying safe on Thai roads imho though is to stay off the fuckers after dark.
Although I was in Laos I drove a lot in Thailand and despite the fact the Lao car was left hand drive I found the thais not to bad , certainly better than the Lao.who had only recently got some money and got all vigo, Ed up they couldn't drive for shit. ..I stayed of the road at night in both countries.
