Tonight Udon Thani had it chance to enter the nominations, but didnt quite make it with only a near miss.
Background
Stationary in my SUV at the red lights at Soi Nong Bua on Posri Road as the gathering of bikes occur for the 3 minute episode of the running of the red light.
But wait
An Expat and his lady friend join this gathering , Still 30 seconds to go, out comes the pocket size Digital camera, set to movie mode. ( readers please note - female is wearing a helmet ) 5, 4, 3, ( reving heard ) 2 1, they off and first to get away was the Honda wave ( male rider - Thai no helmet )
Then the Expat forgot the basics of one of Sir Issac's Laws. For every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.
That is, rapid acceleration applied = lady friend all but lost her position on the bike as she is filming the red light drag ! holding onto the camera and nothing else.
But wait readers, the 2 second sky shot is then replaced with a 45 second grab of a bike going crazy up the road, swerving, weaving inbetween , bikes, cars, all for the movie shot.
Lost sight of them them as they went up the overpass.
Congratulations to the Expat, you nearly killed 1 or more in what can only be described as an act of stupidity.
