1 hour ago, Old Croc said:Some people who saw the aftermath of the accident, and have seen video of same, state that the tourists on the bike were catapulted a long way past the point of impact and injuries were extensive. They had no chance of survival. It appears high speed could have been a major factor in their demise. Not defending a Thai driver u-turning in traffic, but a bike driven at high speed can appear very suddenly.
Much has been written on this forum in the past about problems with some North African men who hire big bikes and terrorize motorists by speeding/racing in towns such as Patong and Kamala.
It may just be that the bike rider should bear some responsibility for what happened.
Even as an experienced motorcyclist dealing with the chaotic traffic in Phuket is challenging to say the least. I just can't get used to vehicles coming out of side streets without giving way, sometimes they have no choice as the sois are so narrow visibility is limited until they are onto the main drag. Vehicles coming from the other side of main roads in a slight diagonal as they look to make a right turn. It goes on, the amount of information to process on the main roads is more than this old timer cares to deal with, and as for riding at high speed forget that.

Two years ago the greedy 1% had 58% of the wealth. This year that has risen to 67%. They won't be satisfied until they have got the lot and the way they are going that shouldn't take long.
So where do they go when they have it all, they will want more than all of it, how can they rest?

So why on earth did they bother in the first place, nobody with wealth acquired it honestly.

To the elites it makes sense. You will not question you will be silent, while we plunder.

That is some groovy-woovy, topsy-turvy, mind-blowing logic there...
'What you did is not illegal anymore, but you must be punished for it!'
I have heard of Feminine logic, Asian logic, Situational logic, Locational logic, Illogical logic, 6th dimentional logic, Parental logic.. and even a few other 'logics' that are so weird they do not have names.
However, this one has ascended into the realms of logic beyond human understanding...
It's the ************ logic.

After a brief interview with the Thai Police?
Why was he allowed to leave disinterested cops or something else.

Lots of interesting comments here, I see things in a simple way. Thailand's elites have the Armed forces, Police and flexible interpretation of laws to make sure the cash keeps flowing their way.

They are summoned to report to the police, how do police in other countries deal with armed offenders, we know what they do, in the interest of protecting the local community they go hard.

Australia has requested he be allowed to return, Bahrain on the other hand is probably filling some brown envelopes.
Let's see how much Australia cares about this guy.

A key point for me is the mention of the military and their represive ways ruining Thailand's reputation. True it is and funny how these fat cat generals see it the other way around, in that those who protest the junta are damaging the countries reputation.

What a planet Thailand is, he goes campaigning and his cronies say he's not campaigning.
For those of you who maybe unsure, He is campaigning, and in this case he is using a dreaded Fallang to try and get some cred.

It is not quite clear if he was travelling out of the country or if he was arriving. Arriving with 10,000 dollars would have made sense, as he will need 800,000 THB season in a Thai bank for the retirement extension. Leaving the country with 10,000 USD still in his pocket, does not make much sense, other than that he failed to open a bank account for the "retirement seasoned amount". Why would he still have so much cash on him LEAVING the country.
And otherwise, if he was on his way out, he would have been long gone from Suvarnabhmui airport, before the taxi driver found the bag. And he must have missed his flight out while waiting for the taxi driver at the police box in the airport. Or missed his flight eventually while performing all the photo-shooting operation
Something in this story does not fit . . . . .
What doesn't fit is the frequency of these stories. I can believe this can happen, but every month?

Policeman shoots dead male tourist at Trendy Building in Bangkok
in Thailand News Headlines

A shocking incident.
Don't let me down TV people come on out with it
"500Bht and a wai and all is forgiven" or "a month in the orange robes he will be free"
Cynical I may be, but not far from the truth.
