Re: Road Accident Statistics 2019
They ever think about getting the road traffic cops to actually do their jobs instead of just jumping out in front of little girls to extort some money out of them?CEOCambodiaNews wrote: ↑Mon Nov 25, 2019 6:20 pmMr Kheng instructed all relevant officials to find the reason for the increases, noting that they should reduce accident rates using other measures such as banning alcohol sales at night
You can literally drive through a red light here with the cops watching and they won't do shit. No repercussions, so no one gives a fuck.
If you enjoy noise pollution and obnoxious driving practices, Phnom Penh is the place for you!
This.

Re: Road Accident Statistics 2019/2020
We were friends with some traffic police in SNV.
They told us to buy a car rather than a bike, because you are much safer in a car when you’re driving drunk.
True story.

It is interesting that Sar Kheng (police) is the one bitching about lack of action, when Sun Chanthol (transport) has put in place the first mechanisms to allow police to retrospectively punish traffic offenders.

Lord Duncan,
Monivong at a light like 217 or similar is best handled on foot in traffic with a hand mantle onto the median and an up, over spin into oncoming lane, esp with cars piled and stopped at said red light traffic. This is the freedom, this is Kampuchea. Its such a sporting walkable place its a bit like parkour at times as a pedestrian.
cheers

Most of the helmets here would not even pass as fit for use for bicyles in the west. You really think a $10 bit of platic is gonna save your head? Especially when 4 people in the family share the same one that doesnt fit?
Biggest cause of deth in road accidents here is the time it takes to get to competent(?) medical aid . Noone moves for ambilances, many people cannot afford to go to the doctor anyway.
I asked a khmer why he didnt wear a helmet. Answer ; if i wear a helmet my other injuries will cost my family a lot. better i die quick than be disabled and a burden'

Prime Minister HE said he supported amendments that would see traffic lawbreakers receive harsher penalties in an effort to reduce accidents.
The prime minister said this when he attended an annual meeting to review work meetings and set goals for action plan 2020 at the Ministry of Interior on Thursday.
HE said: “I request that various measures are paid attention to. Officials have to adhere to the law and enforce traffic measures. We also need to amend the law to make a change.
“Drivers who drive dangerously will have a hole punched in their licenses as well as a 400,000 riel [$ 100] fine. When police see the hole, they will know that the driver had previously broken the law.

Yeah, I really do think a $10 bit of plastic HAS ALREADY SAVED MY HEAD THREE TIMES. And I'm not disabled. It's all very heroic to go dying for your family, (supposedly) like the one random guy you asked, but I'll take the chance, and hopefully sacrifice my life when it's definitely needed.
Re: Road Accident Statistics 2019/2020
Maybe you are a little accident prone?. I have seen 2 people injured, one by the helmet breaking in 2 and another with the obviously oversized helmet falling off. Both low speed accidents. Any helmet will help if it stays on in a low speed shunt, but it will not necessarily be of much uses once you are over 20km hour. Rather depedns on the circumstances of the accident. At higher speed the design and padding are far more important than the shell, and 1 cm of polystyrene is pretty much useless. BTW I always wear a helmet, but I am under no illusion as to how ineefective it would be on ope roadssiliconlife wrote: ↑Sat Feb 22, 2020 2:41 pmThis old expat line again...pczz wrote: ↑Tue Feb 18, 2020 5:11 am Most of the helmets here would not even pass as fit for use for bicyles in the west.
