Do i show my friend this who is going travelling on a moped in thailand next month...
Yes.
Yes
Why fookin not
If you don't they can blame you for any accidents. So yes. You have to for your own sake.
YES, PLEASE !!
I am absolutely shocked at that statistic; 44 people die every day from moped accidents in Thailand. Wow
Do how not to die from dying next?
I'm an expat living in Cambodia. I finally gained the courage to drive a moto here after never having a license in the US and car anxiety my whole life. Thanks BBC, im scared again.
you emigrated to cambodia and you are scared of the country
@@PHlophe No, they said they're scared of driving a moto/moped IN the country.
@@PHlophe im safer here than in the US by 100 times but an open moto going 25mph doesn't offer much protection in an accident
you were the one to watch this vid🤣 why you blame the BBC
Young people need to stop playing with they life abroad and drive safe
Gomez Gomez people like to have fun sometimes
@@bobbysunley5864 but fun would get you kill
@@gomes3776 true
@@bobbysunley5864 Also true but you still have to be carefull
Like his hair style. Good to see he survived.
That's a scooter, the kind of vehicle where you sit like a chair with your feet in front of you. A moped is a bicycle-type vehicle with an engine and pedals.
My second moped accident I suffered from a broken arm, hip fracture and 2 broken fingers
Crazy tragedy I hope you let go of the moped because car are much better option
@@marissabones haha I know is not funny but lesson is something that you cannot forget that's for sure
@@marissabones 💯 but I'm sure you probably missed
It hits most often those who do not ride a motorcycle at home, that means: lack of practice + unfamiliar roads + holiday high mood = The End.
PS: Forgot
Thank you, Ross and Aimie! It did reach me. I won't give motorcycling up but somtimes I need a strong reminder.
No Gear, Carrying a passenger, Unfamiliar roads , possibly intoxicated, and dark is literally a recipe for disaster. What did he expect was going to happen. Mopeds/Motorcycles are NOT toys, they will kill or seriously injure you if you do not respect them.
Just leave mopeds alone in country's like Thailand
I used to live there and god damn, you have no idea how not special this story is. This happens to so many people. Sucks but very common
Literally thinking of getting a moped
Don't please..
I had a friend named Clayton recently pass..
Clayton Griffith don’t I had one for a year and no one on the road respects you they just cut u up and stuff all the time
Get one man I have a bws 50 Yamaha
@@brimmyburner7530 can't let that stop you if crashed as well I got back up and moved on but I'm sorry for you're lost
How are you meant to have all this stuff on a moped
Being on a 🏍 you are so exposed it’s not worth it. Just drive a 🚗 or better yet use public transport especially if you live in a big city
Glad he made it.
"let them amputate your leg, you can live without your leg but we can't live without you"
well that's selfish
I had a moped for a few months and I never had an accident but I had a couple near misses. I was naive too, I wore a helmet I knew was too big because I couldn't be bothered buying a smaller one and I would drive it in whatever I felt like wearing that day, sometimes skirts or shorts. I think mopeds are fantastic, but you need to know the risks and that drivers are gonna be assholes. Don't take driving a moped lightly
Car are much better
4 views and 3 likes wow thats good
Shouldn't he have been wearing leathers? Helmet, jacket and chaps, which you need for any motorcycle (even if it's a moped).
A lot of traveling while playing basketball. Someone should explain the rules to him
Mopeds aren't inherently dangerous, it's when you don't know how to handle one and abroad countries don't care whether or not you have a license. I wouldn't say "how not to die from a moped: don't ride one" , just understand how to ride and how to be safe on one. I don't blame this guy, accidents do happen and I feel for him but I'm just commenting on the narrative behind it.
