scooters

Motor scooters are huge in Thailand. You see very few cars and lots of motor scooters. That’s what the locals use. Few drivers need the power of big motorbikes and cars, especially in Bangkok where the traffic is stop and start. The laws are not strictly enforced and they are so easy to handle you see ten year olds with little siblings driving them. Our experience with motor scooters was at a small town, Sichon.The resort we found rented them out to us and we spent the whole day driving them. We got some suggestions on were to go and we went to two water falls. The other great thing about the scooters was that they were the same price as a taxi for all of us so we could use them to get food in town because the resort food wasn’t very good. We ended up renting them again so we could use them just for that. But the best thing was I got to drive on the road! Carsen 5/12/09
