How do you know, were you a witness?

Where did it say that it was known that he was intoxicated? Where did it say that he caused the accident?

Says who? He has not been confirmed to have been doing anything wrong...yet

ALLEGED, not confirmed.

You brought up the subject of phones, not me!

You didn't know that they were Chinese? Your non-Chinese phone wouldn't work very well without its (more likely than not) Chinese battery!

Modern Chinese cars are not known for unreliability or bad dealer service.

How come there are so many Thais in prison for drugs offences, then?

Wow, 505/20s! Didn't know that tyres that wide were available here!

Why?

She wasn't prosecuted for "signing for a package", she was prosecuted for Class 1 narcotic possession and drug smuggling.

No, 33 years for international drug trafficking and possession of Class 1 narcotics.

Would you sign for and accept your neighbours' package if you knew that they were drug dealers?

And believing the cowardly, criminal, drug dealer here in regards to her "innocence" generally results in misunderstandings also!

I'd already referred to "normal" car insurance policies in a couple of comments. Taking that into consideration you can see that I wasn't meaning that new-for-old policies do not exist anywhere. For the record, no insurer will offer new-for-old on a normal policy, i.e the sort of policy the woman in this thread will have. It has to be paid for by taking out a new-for-old policy.

Time to amend the thread title?!

In my posts I did refer to "normal" policies a couple of times and also to agreed values. Normal car insurance policies aren't new for old.

Insurers is Australia do. https://www.suncorp.com.au/learn-about/my-car/new-for-old-car-replacement.html Yes, but it's not a standard policy. I'm sure there may be Thai insurers that will offer that type of cover for the extra premium involved and sure as shiit the woman involved won't have one. My comments on this thread have referred to "normal" policies.

They have offered to pay for the car's repair!

They should if it a) wasn't your fault b) it devalues the car c) it causes structural issues Strange hill to die on, championing the corporate company, go figure You think that they should. There's no rational reason that an accident damaged old car should be replaced by a brand new one. No insurers, anywhere do that, insurers obligations are to put the policy holder in back to the position their car was before the accident (or pay write-off compensation of the car's value before the accident or agreed value), not to put them in a better position. If, say, a five-year old car was written off do you really think that the owner should be given a brand new car despite the fact that the insurance policy does not provide that cover? Strange hill to die on, championing irrationality.

Yet they won't be in identical condition because one would be original undamaged steel and the other highly repaired In that case they would not be identical! He referred to identical cars.

"BANGKOK (NNT) - International tourists’ activity has picked up ..." Well, one could argue that "international tourists' activity" could include 'just browsing the internet for destinations'... "Online travel booking platform Agoda made the findings after having compiled data on room booking made via the platform from May to August this year. It found Bangkok to be the number one destination drawing interest from foreign tourists".

The OP didn't claim that they are all travelling here.

All home growers have to be registered to be legal, though.

I'd agree with that, except that it shouldn't take months to repair. On this occasion, when she left the car with them it was for a body repair, not a service.
