There maybe other things i add to this list later:
Thai-Time is relative - relative to what though?? (ie after being told i have to leave at 10 O'c [it's 9:54 now] i apparently still have time to shower and pack!! then there is a sudden hurry to catch a share taxi truck thingy at 10:42.... it's caught, apparently on time at 10:45....)
Taxi's are not impervious to all other vehicles no matter how badly they may behave when they think they're in a rush.... but there's no stopping to exchange insurance when you hit someone you're trying to push in front of. (oh and the meter stays on in fuel stations)
A third is the absolute maximum you should pay a walking street hawker compared to his opening price (if you actually want something they're selling - a rarity in itself).
Driving is an art not a science.
Shops of a feather flock together - including giant-rock shops on the way to Erawan
That's it for now...
very PS... I have now survived reversing down the first lane of a motorway(/freeway) when a taxi driver missed the turn.... So i don't need to do that again any time soon!!
