Re: Fatal Tuk-Tuk Crash Kills Two Finnish Passengers & Cambodian Driver in Phnom Penh, Cambodia
It this way, we are all sitting ducks. There is a danger element to this place, I find it heightens the experience. There's a lot more freedom too. I kinda just accept that when its my time I will go softly into the night, and until then I will try to relax and enjoy.
RIP to the victims.

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
He could have added, and when in Phnom Penh, use a fecking car, not a tuktuk. You don't have to be a sitting duck.

The Prius gets a pretty damn good safety rating, see https://www.iihs.org/iihs/ratings/vehic ... hback/2018.newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2019 1:31 am
RIP to all those who died. Based on the drunk’s driving, a Prius might not have saved them, a cement truck might have.
The Camry's rating is damn near perfect, https://www.iihs.org/iihs/ratings/vehic ... door-sedan

Anyone have the safety ratings for a Tuk-Tuk?

In any collision with a Lexis 300, you are basically dead. In fact, Consumer Reports rates the tuk tuk very low. In any collision with anything, you are basically dead.

Dear lord baby Jesus, you think being mutilated by a Lexus heightens your experience in Cambodia? That is precious! Do you think those 2 young gentlemen share your fondness for danger. Maybe a little respect and decency for their family and friends is in order.RickyBobby wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2019 9:36 am It this way, we are all sitting ducks.

What my post says is this could happen to anyone of us. It is not disrespectful. Knowing that there is danger and I can do little to nothing about it makes my heart race a bit. This awareness is juxtaposed against the freedom I also experience.cambo swa wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2019 7:08 pmDear lord baby Jesus, you think being mutilated by a Lexus heightens your experience in Cambodia?
