Seat Belts

February 29th, 2008

Seat belts in Thailand are a murky issue. The police insist you wear them when you sit in your car, and that’s a good thing. But why is it OK for a pickup truck to drive around with a carload full of guys in the back? Every so often these things get into massive collisions and twenty young lives are lost all at once. Tragic.

(Naughty me, I always wonder if there was a cute gay Asian among them)
