On the road for Khmer New Year-increased danger?
On the road for Khmer New Year-increased danger?
How will the roads be for Khmer New Year? Will there be increased traffic, more drunks, distracted driving/riding? It's not like the roads in Thailand during holidays? I'm thinking about going up to Ratanakiri or Mondulkiri.
Based on previous years, it'll be carnage.

It’s ammo pea shooters.
Yes. The roads are much busier so therefore more dangerous.
KNY doesn’t make people drive like idiots. It’s just you notice it more because there’s more of them.

Check out the front page of today's local news. Death, death, death, death and a bit more death for good measure (mostly road related).

The only thing that's kept things on the roads here from being as bad as Thailand is the state of the roads limiting the speeds. I expect it will get a lot worse in future with the new Chinese roads being built.

Maybe (probably) but Asia (and African countries) as a whole have always had bad accident rates on the roads, maybe excluding the richer countries (SG, HK etc).
They just don’t think like westerners do when driving. But then why are we pushing our values (we’re comparing rates to western nations no?) on them, again?
There’s airports everywhere. People are happy to go back home to their safe neighbourhoods if they are concerned because let’s face it - Most expats sucking their teeth and shaking their heads about road deaths don’t give a shit about the locals. It’s about their safety they are concerned with.
I like it that’s its still a bit “Wild West” and that is something that hasn’t changed in 20 years. Ok probably less road accidents in the years after KR but then that was the least of the problems eh.
I don’t think their (SE Asians) mentality will change ever.
I remember in 93 in Koh Samui coming around a blind bend when two kids on a moto with no lights on, no helmets, came flying on my side of the road. Missed me by inches. That was the fist of many.
But I liked it. It was crazy and unpredictable.

Even in Phnom Penh you will see more accidents- empty roads, more speed - same retarded level of driving skill for the most part.
