Re: Why do we drive on the left?

I never once saw a Thai indicate to change lanes or turn, they just cut in front of each other. The roads in Bangkok are so congested, but everybody is trying to get from A to B in the quickest possible time, so they are constantly speeding up then slamming on their brakes as someone cuts in without indicating. I saw one fella in a van cut across 4 lanes of traffic in order to park on the pavement causing near misses with several other vehicles.
