I refuse to believe the lorry did not clearly see him in front and left, when about to turn left.

You have to watch the video! This was NOT "two slaps"! This Ahole actually could have easily given her a broken bone or concussion. I hope and pray that she wins at least a few million baht in compensation, AND the guy is locked up, coward that he is, using his full strength on a defenceless woman!

Not only Pattaya, but also Hua Hin, direct from DMK! https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2963397/new-1st-class-bus-service-from-bangkok-airports-to-hua-hin-pattaya?utm_source=enewsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=enewsletter&utm_content=section&utm_term=general&_extid=subscriber414104&utm_campaign=&utm_content=Bangkok Post online Breaking news (18%2F02%2F2025)&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter

If the accused is missing, who offered the 500,000 baht?

Bob now feverishly banging away on the keyboard looking for a place in Cambodia he could say he was at...... LOL

CCTV?

Ask the millions, yes, MILLIONS of alcohol addicted people if cocaine is worse. ALL drugs should be legalized, taxed, so that quality is maintained, and gov't profits go to treatment centres.

If I were staying in your area, I would just jump over to Terminal 21 every day, huge choice of good restaurants, and even their food court, Pier something, has a great variety of good food, cheap!

Didn't know they had agents for this! Please do provide us with contact details. Thank You!

Wow! Didn't expect that! Was hoping he'd turn up after a "bender"! RIP young man.

He only used violence when she refused, which I am guessing she didn't do before marriage, so she didn't know about the violence until too late. Hope she leaves him, next step will be murder.

Everybody's blaming the judge, but she has to go by the facts presented to her, the the facts presented by social services were grossly wrong, because of an "inexperienced" worker. Well, even "inexperienced" workers can take one look at the file which has details of all previous abuse, and then also can check the child for marks of recent physical abuse. But she presented a case to the judge that is perfectly ok to let the child go back to the custody of this murderous father, I believe perhaps because she was "charmed" by him, and/or just didn't give a dam about this particular kid. RIP young one.

I am more interested in what charges were brought against this person, who is instrumental in deciding young children's lives and future....

I think the driver is in the wrong profession. Driving tourists around requires a bit of familiarity, jocularity, friendliness. I must admit I have felt like whacking one or two in the past, for grudingly taking me to a destination, while cursing the entire way for low funds, or other personal problems!

The US stock market lost a TRILLION dollars almost overnight due to this new AI startup. Some retaliation was expected, either from the Gov't or companies affected, Nvidia, etc.

I remember watching the video some time ago, the dog never tried to fight back, not even run away, and the guy kept on viciously whacking the poor animal, brought tears to my eyes.

"Kwanchai has initially been charged under Sections 22 and 43(4) of the Land Transport Act for failing to obey traffic signals and reckless driving causing injury. The penalty for these offences is a fine of up to 1,000 baht." Ok, so the tourist gets a broken head, hospital bills, flies home early (with the resulting blowback from other tourists in his country choosing another destination, causing possibly millions in lost tourism damages to Thailand), and the jerk who flew through a red light and crosswalk has to pay a whole 2000 baht for almost killing a person? Is that enough incentive for following traffic rules in Thailand? This madness will not stop until the Government wakes up.....

A place called M's Mojito, right on the corner of Beach Road and the Klang Road, the band is pretty good, but the views of the beach/sea are unbeatable!

Surprised you didn't mention the Triangle just off Soi Buakhow. Philipino band will play just about anything you ask them to!

Well, one can only hope that all the "trumpers" on this forum are packing up to go and HELP Make America Great Again! Best wishes and I hope you succeed!

I drive as close as possible to them Indians walking on the road (not even remotely to the side but in the middle) HOPING that my side mirror will whack them, and that it hurts!

One should actually research the cost of rehabs in different countries to realize that Thailand has some of the most expensive centers in the world. Most rehabs all work off the same playbook, using drugs to detox first, then psychological treatments with physical exercise and a daily routine to bring one back to sanity. Places like India have very good treatment centres at a tenth of the cost of Thailand.

Not in the case of Thailand, which has enough attractions, but missing casinos, to attract wealthy Chinese, and Indians, who simply live to gamble. They will get their wish of wealthy tourists if the open a few casinos, in spots close to airports, but not, if they allow it to be totally out of control like marijuana!

In every part of society, all over the world, you are (mostly) treated the way you treat people. I've never been mistreated in Thailand by bouncers, in fact, they go out of their way to look after me, because I usually offer them a cigarette, or something very small.

Nick, just to let you know, you don't need to paste everything on a link, everything after the ? is useless, just tracking data.
