First in Thailand: Separated pedestrian path for smartphone junkies
The photo shows Thailand's first pedestrian walkway for mobile phone users at Kasetsart University (KU) in Bangkok.
The 500-meter footpath is divided into two lanes to separate phone users from non-users. The idea was conceived by KU students and is sponsored by Toyota Thailand. The footpath will serve the front of Central | until November 15 Building No 1, which many pedestrians turn into e. which has a lot of foot traffic during rush hour. After this date, an inventory will be made of how many telephone addicts have used the footpath.
The aim of the project is to increase the safety of students, who only have eyes for the screen of their telephone.

Haha, nice move. In this way, normal pedestrians, without telephone addiction, can safely cross the sidewalk again, without having to slalom around those duds.
I am curious which part will be used the most, although I can almost guess at that place.
The path without a phone, of course.
It is quieter there to make phone calls.
What madman is going to check this line.?
Sorry police for extra incidents of course. HAHAHAHA
The smartphone junkies won't notice that sign unless they run into it, hehe. 🙂
Yesterday this tablet junkie ran into a sign on the sidewalk in Jomtienbeach, placing billboards at a height that your marble will bump into it is criminally irresponsible.
Participating in traffic, yes ... including a pedestrian on the sidewalk, while you are not paying attention and only paying attention to your tablet is just stupid and irresponsible. If it weren't for that tablet, you would have definitely noticed the sign.
They can remove the sign, because all Thais are smartphone junkies.
They have no time for anything else.
Maybe also an idea for motorbikes and cars. You also see (too) much in traffic
I see more in fast footpaths for fast walking tourists. Anyway, this is another nice thing for the magazines and B TV channels around the world.
Fine, a separate footpath, but certainly no idea of KU students. I saw it on television 2 years ago in an American program about influencing human behavior.
Now there are (moped) cycle paths to prevent "wrongful driving".
Especially on three and four lane roads, because a Thai really doesn't drive to the next U turn.
