Is it safe to walk around Thailand at night?

Is Bangkok safe at night? Just like pretty much any other place in the world, Bangkok can get quite sketchy at night. If possible, stick with a group instead of heading out alone and don't go wandering off into small side streets. Opt for a taxi to get around, even if it's just a short distance.
