Car sales plunge, motorcycles up | Bangkok Post: business

Good to see the fall in new car sales, long may it continue

But did you also see the article in yesterday's Bangkok Post on how the Police are specifically targeting 'big bikes' for driving offences: it appears, in direct response to the growth in this market.

I also saw Thai riders on FB mentioning Police targeting big bikes in certain areas yesterday. Some discussion of how bikes over 250cc should be allowed to use tollways by riders too.

Compared to the amount of small bikes I see everyday here riding without Phor Ror Bor, insurance, lights etc., big bikes are just a drop in the ocean and easy targets/scape goats...
