Jesus this must be the worst road in Thailand ..............A new hand held camera has appeared about 2 kms before Cabbage & Condoms heading towards Nang Rong.You see a police pick up parked on the left & the posse of cops are waiting around the corner after Cabb & Cond
-
I assume you mean heading East towards Nang Rong.
-
Nookie....best send CoCo a PM just in case he misses this.
-
Yes. I went to Nang Rong last night around 4pm and they had around 20 vehicles pulled over....
-

Its only Yanks that refer to things as N,S,E or W.I THINK THE REST OF THE WORLD UNDERSTANDS PERFECTLY AS TO WHERE IT IS LOCATED

There's nookie the man that knows everything speaking for the rest of the world again.
Amazing that when I worked with the Brits, Aussies, Germans, and Canadians we would specifically work to elimiate ambiguities when discussing points of reference. Nice to know anyone traveling from Prakchon to Nang Rong will see the camera per your directions.

Where is Prakchon?
The directions from Cabbages and Condoms was quite precise. Bearing in mind that Nookie comes from NongKi, west of Nang Rong, he must have been traveling East.
That is Brit ingenuity.
-
I've also heard from a Thai lad who got caught there that its 400baht a go too!!
-

Got it.
That is a sneaky little location.
-

Keith, you are exactly right Nongki is west of Nang Rong so Nookie would indeed be heading east....
Prackonchai is east of Nang Rong....so heading to Nang Rong from Prackonchai you would be travelling west
Hahaha sorry Steve didn't read all the thread....you beat me to it...

Nookie please be more specific in your location, do you have maybe sat nav co ordinates? About 2 kms, is it 1 KM or 3km? The road near to where you mention turns to the left, so am I now heading East or in fact East North East at the precise moment I pass the gun.
Far too vague as usual Nookie, how are people supposed to understand where you mean.
-
Are you some sort of idiot , Adam?
If you are traveling east and turn left you are then traveling North north east. I hope you don' t navigate on those ships!
-
Ah Mr Starman, that would depend on the angle of the turn, I happen to know that the turn near Cabbages and Condoms is less than 45 degrees and thus would put us closer to East by north east than north by north east. If Nookie could please take a compass with him next time he goes we could sort this out once and for all. However that is assuming that the 24 is on a bearing of 090 degrees in the first place which is suspect would not be 100% accurate.
Perhaps our pedantic American friend can clarify this.
-
Slight over site on my part. You appear to be not quite as idiotic I it first seemed. I am meeting Nookie tomorrow. Lets see if we can get our heads together and get to the bottom of this facinating equation.

Starman,
Show where directions were provided from Cabbages and Condoms.
If that is Brit ingenuity, no wonder the sun now sets on the British Empire.
Here is Nookie's statement: A new hand held camera has appeared about 2 kms before Cabbage & Condoms heading towards Nang Rong.You see a police pick up parked on the left & the posse of cops are waiting around the corner after Cabb & Cond
What is the exact direction he is traveling per his statement? Define "before"
-
Would you care to answer my question first , please?
By the way...I find your affection for me, as you have once again singled me out, quite flattering.

The issue here is that I do not regularly travel on 24. So what is correct, Prakchon or Prackonchai? Google maps did not provide the correct spelling.
Which brings us to the point that you long time expats know exactly what Nookie means, but others like me did not know. For example I have never seen Cabbages and Condoms, so other than being in Nang Rong, I have no idea of its location.
-
OK, but you do know where Nookie lives. You have been to his place. I do know that because I have seen you there.

Yes I know where that fat disgusting shirtless person lives (have it on my GPS). Which is why I said heading east into Nang Rong.
So how are those that have class and do not visit Nookie supposed to know the location?

You Two should get a Room lol

Take him, he is obviously your type.
No, neither you or Starman need to report back, TMI.

Cabbages and Condoms is on the 24 on the left hand side just before Nang Rong if you are coming from Pak Thong Chai (eastbound, but not necessarily East (see previous posts)). You can't miss it as there is a giant prick wearing a condom by the side of the road.
-
Heck they probably changed location by now. 😜

DD,its far too much of an earner for the BiB..............The fact that this only seems to appear 15-00hrs onwards catches people unawares as most speed traps seem to be in the morning.

Adam if it wasn't for the fact that the 'prick' is there 24/7,one could easily think it is Urleft in disguise!!

Or Nookie in real life.

So all BS aside, based what's been discussed, I would guess the camera is about here:
-
Anyway my children, all BS apart : what is the correct speedlimit on this road ? And what are the speedlimits on other roads/citycenters/highways ? My wife always has a different answer !?!?!
-

Town and city: 60 km/h
Open Roads: 90 km/h
Motorways: 120 km/h
Whether you are already in the city or not may require you to look out for, find, and be able to read the Thai sign for 'slow down' or alternatively a sign telling you that you are in the city or town. A dead crow having a shit is a notice that you are on a motorway. I will doubtless be corrected.

Your wife will not be wrong Croc.............. even if she is :)
BiB told me that highway No2 was 120 kph (I was doing 123 kph!) which surprised me as I didn't think it was a 'motorway'.
-
Prick and Urleft in the same sentence sounds about right Nookie...
-
you can prick your finger, but don't finger your prick.
-
character3
It really is that easy..
-
Yes, a rain storm seems to be gathering, which definitely the way people drive and post on public forums. Keep it for PMs guys, it gets boring to those of us that don't want to get involved.
-
Thanks for posting what the real speed limits are. But seriously, they will stop you for 123km/hr in a 120km/hr zone? That's a bit 'letter of the law,' but if so I know now.....
-
You Two should get a Room lol
No thanks,Toffo.
I have met Urleft twice. That's enough.

Highway 2 as with all other Highways have a speed limit of 90km/hr

Starman I think you meant to say 'twice toooooooooo many'

Tell that to the copper who stopped me!

I am only quoting what the local Highway police say......2 of them speak pretty good English........Highway 2 is no different to Highway 24

what is really funny here is that I cannot recall ever meeting Starman.
I am not saying that he is wrong, but I have no recolection of ever meeting him. He made his usual impression on me.
-
BTW, notice that Nookie has yet to provide a helpful map location for newbies.
That is typical, we are expected to know exactly what the man that speaks for everyone is stating.
For those of us that do not recognize Nookie's omnipotence, questions and clarifications need to be asked, but expect to be ridiculed by nookie and Starman as they know more than the rest of us.
-
No map will be forthcoming,likewise no further info on this subject will be forthcoming.Don't come 'bleating' when you get caught because it has moved location & no-one was kind enough to tell you.

I have mentioned this before but I will say it again.
BE is often an informative forum an is usually good for a laugh. It is not, however, the centre of the universe and does not feature as much in my priorities as it seems to for other.
For that reason, when I met you I did not feel compelled to say " Hello Urleft, my name is Starman."
