Been riding here for years, people are very forgiving on the roads. You just have to always expect the unexpected. That junction in the video is fine generally.I feel more relaxed when riding in Bangkok than in England where everybody is so aggressive. Come and enjoy the relaxing roads of Bangkok for yourself! Forgiveness is the name of the game on the roads here. Oh and speed limits.. What speed limits? Bliss on two wheels!
It alway like this in everyday but it almost new year then the Thai will say "Happy New Year" It alway make me bord about that traffic even it the rush time it can make you become mad One last thing I'm Thai
funny though how their traffic system seems TO WORK. i mean look at western rules vs eastern rules (thailand, india etc). their traffic seems to work sooooo much better, although it is a bit more scary :)
Yea, who ever follows them? In NYC if you wait for a traffic signal to let you cross an avenue you'll be there a while. The midwest is the only place I have seen people follow them, but they'll still break that if some crosses a head of them. Cop in Iowa got mowed down trying to write Jay walking ticket, kind of funny to watch.
I've been in Mexico with their traffic. But this traffic from Asian is on another level. It couldn't work here in the US. People would just get mad at each other. Road rage and self-righteous idiots here.
thailand is a beautiful country.. and bangkok is a nice city.. luv ur country.. luv from India.
I love Bangkok! I went just before the recent floodings. I hope they recover quickly.
Oh my God...
That's frickin' AWESOME! XD
(And did anyone else catch that 'Fast and Furious' looking car at 0:27 in the lower left?)

Haha its like watching the beginning of a race. 3,2,1 GO!
and the scooters take off at once.
I'm surprised they have traffic lights in Bangkok. Cause in Shanghi [check Shanghi Traffic], they had none, and that was creepy.
is it possible some are those are Scooter style E-bikes also ??
I miss Thailand.. I went there for 3 months and only seen one accident and it wasn't even that bad.. it's like organized chaos :)
I miss Bangkok, my favourite city...
Well, we have traffic lights throughout Thailand, not only Bangkok.
@carzdav, You alone make 6 beeps. The hundred Thais beep only once throughout the video.
So GOOD I love you thailand.
nice car at 0:27 xD in the left corner

@TahaJames They have scooter-taxi? That should be comfortable.

little more organized than in Egypt
wow this is a world away from Cairo, Paris or Barcelona!
Cuanta moto!! ^.^
thailand is a democracy.... one with some of the worlds best defensive drivers, and little to no road rage....
Let's go everybody! There is a sale down at the Walmart
how much is the fish

I always wonder how taxis in Bangkok can drive several of kilometers for only one euro price. Casolin or cas must pay something.
This Is The "Usual" Traffic.. Holy Shit O,o
motor cross or what on a start line
0:27 left/down -> RICER!! xD
Colorful scooters :O
WOWO NICE!
C'est vraiment comme ça en plus. / It's full reallity.
lol @ the scooter guys. Aren't they supposed to be behind the white line and not all over the padestrian crossing.
dunno why they bother with traffic lights, i never obey them when i was there
from what Ive heard, thailand have about 10000 traffic accidents per week,, can this really be true?

what rules???
Well, it's normal here. I get used to it ..
This is NOTHING compared to Cairo... This is rather civilized driving, instead of TOTAL CHAOS in Cairo !
I would be ticked off if someone cuts me off
@TheAmericankhmer just like pnom penh but more developed :P
Anybody else catch that damn ricer @ 0:25? :P
lol i know what your talking about especially if you watch it high
and here i thought that "fuck all lane laws"
only existed in india
Nothing special for me since I'm from Houston....2nd worst traffic in the United States after Los Angeles!!!
ah i miss bkk
I do not want to live there. even on vacation
yet better than china alot
anarchy at it's best :)
priceless :D
cavalry,... attack!
