Many many 4 wheel drivers here in Thailand have no regard for 2 wheel traffic... I have a bigger bike and take the full lane in situations like this that way the 4 wheeler must yield until I can safely move... too many small scooter riders try to yield by riding the line and/or shoulder of the road when it is not safe to do so... charge him with attempted murder before he can murder someone.

That is until some angry, sleepy, drunk or drugged driver comes up behind you and either doesn't see you or doesn't care. All well and good knowing you are in the right, but is it worth it when you are lying in traction in hospital?
