How to Solve Traffic Problems in Bangkok
October 10, 2013
By Richard Barrow
There has been a lot in the news lately about ways to solve traffic problems in Bangkok. One traffic cop came up with the idea of banning older cars from entering Bangkok, or at least getting the drivers to pay the same tax as new cars if they live in Bangkok. Another idea was to charge per minute for the time your car is broken down and blocking the streets of Bangkok. Other new laws have also been discussed. In my opinion, this picture tweeted by @BangkokPastor clearly shows what is wrong with traffic in Bangkok. Basically lawlessness! Half the time people do what they like and the police don’t seem to have any interest in enforcing the laws that they have.
