I was in Thailand in '88 and it was total carnage. You wouldn't have got me on a bike in BK for love nor money. I rode a bit in the south and spent a few months on Koh Samui during which time there was an average of almost a death a week on the island! Met a couple of Brits doing a London-Sydney trip on a pair of Beemers and had been accident free - until Thailand. I hope for your girlfriend's sake road safety has made a dramatic improvement since then.
