Yes I know that and told the policeman the same thing. She was claiming she was beside me not behind me and never tried to pass me.. if that were the truth then yes she would have had the right of way. He was trying to make the Thai girl whole as possible and not file any charges against anyone (read me) since my insurance agreed to pay the claim if there were no charges and the family stayed reasonible and didn't try to milk me. He kept his word and held them in place. He was also directly honest that if he had to press charges I would lose in court as a foreigner with no proof and the thais that showed up claimed they saw it and I was at fault even though they were not there and never saw anything.

The driver definitely should have had a blinker on but by the looks of the speed of the motorcycle and the time from the start of the turn until impact the cyclist could clearly see the vehicle turning but it wouldn't have mattered as he seemed to be speeding based on the other vehicle movement in the video but impossible to tell. They definitely should have checked on the rider first to see how he was. I had accident earlier this year where a scooter that was well behind me decided to not wait and pass on the shoulder as I was making a left turn with the blinker clear on. Of course it was deemed my fault as the foreigner. I immediately went to the scooter and lifted it off the person but then the locals all came over and physically pushed me away and wouldn't let me near the person to check them, so it can go both ways here.

Private Talks Between Thaksin, Srettha Fuel Cabinet Reshuffle Speculation
Dan O replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Watch for the change before July when the unelected senators are completely out. They made that statement earlier this week that while they will be leaving politics "they have no agenda but they are ready to vote for a new PM before July, if needed" -
No flexing, just fact. No anger either just point out your lack of reading comprehension and the fact that you are all mouth when your wrong. You love to deflect with other info rather than deal with whats been written or stated and then start calling names like a 4 year old when its pointed out. Cry to someone that cares because I don't.

Typical thai excuse but without substance. He ran a red light by about 4 or 5 seconds and hit a pedestrian in a clearly marked crosswalk with a crowd of pedestrians also in the crosswalk, luckily only hitting 1. Another car going the other way ran the red first as well. But instead of admitting to running the red light and hitting a pedestrian his answer was he didn't stop at a crosswalk. Typical thai mentality

Thai woman spills beans on corrupt cop’s love-linked traffic fines
Dan O replied to snoop1130's topic in Isaan News
So the writer of this story is using the name S for 1/2 the people involved? I think it must be a new way to cover up and deflect attention from the bad guys. -
bt800,000 Intl. Transfer
Dan O replied to Jaymatheson's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Your twisting the statements to deflect. First off this isn't 2016. You go ahead and let wise send it thru 10 banks and every bank after the first transfer, if not 1 of there 3 source banks, shows it as a domestic transfer and you need your bank to get a FET document for the transaction. It has nothing to do with the exchange rate but i guess that too confusing for you to understand. Not the same with Swift, its bank to bank direct. Have a good day im done with you on this. -
bt800,000 Intl. Transfer
Dan O replied to Jaymatheson's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
And your point is what ? They both have advantages. For usd the exchange rate i get is comparable to wise and no interbanking FET to deal with and positive documentation. The transfer is generally done in 2 days so not much exchange rate occurs either way. Use whatever you like that serves your purpose. -
bt800,000 Intl. Transfer
Dan O replied to Jaymatheson's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
Most banks charge $25 for a swift transfer. Yes do the exchange at the receiving bank in Thailand. You can check with them on their exchange rates.. You get a confirmation with all details of sending and receiving bank with swift and it goes direct bank to bank. No inter-banking like wise does if your bank isn't one of there 3 domestic banks they use. -
first you said you didnt know about the companies involved and it now turns out you got an email from both companies before the withdrawls? easier if you give all the correct details first so you can get good suggestions. If you went to the bank before the withdrawals were made then you have an argument with the bank as you notified them prior that they were fraudulent and they have cctv that is time stamped to show when you notified them. Debit cards do not have the same protection as Credit cards, just as an FYI and neither have the same protection enforcement here in country as in most western countries. Its obvious that card was skimmed somewhere fairly recently and your data sold. I would be thinking where I used that card at recently

You are delusional if you think 1 or 2 beers has no affect on you and facts don't support you. Do some research

Dan O replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
They were already floating a tax before and shelved it about 3 years ago suring covid in order to help support tourust areas affected but shelved it. Then again last year. That fee was to provide health insurance for tourist. -
GPS coordinates now required.

They presented an idea a couple years ago about a phone app that would track you. It was right before covid hit or right after it started, I can't remember exactly when -

No need to wait, they wrote that article 2 days ago about the UK tourism being down and the affect losing those dollars. -

Dan O replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
So they want the tourist dollars but not the tourist. The dollars support the failing financial govt plans and the Tourist Industry Sector but the extra people are just a nuisance to deal with. And this is coming from the Federation of Thai Tourist Industry which is the group that promotes tourism. You really can't make this $hit up.- 155 replies

Woman assaulted in Bangkok gym after rejecting man’s advances (video)

I'm done discussing this with you as you do nothing but go in a circle trying to prove your right. You have your ideas and we don't agree on them. Have a great day -

Dan O replied to webfact's topic in Bangkok News
Again your example is disconnected from the situation that occurred. Your quoting about gang activity and most of those are drug and alcohol related or infused. Certainly people can get angry without drugs of any type but that isn't the typical angry reaction of someone that's just mad. -
Has anyone heard of a new law ??

That link is not to an official Thai Embassy site but a clone site that offers info and services and isnt connected to Thailand in any way -

I have and I've been replying to your comments to me.. Yeah you were. Doesnt matter the guy was a f'n idiot and you have no idea why. Considering the setting there's more a possibility he was than not but you or I will ever know but it certainly is a unconnected comparison you tried make.
