UK is going to have a "NO KINGS" rally? That will not go down well with some.

He must be new to Thailand. Motorcycles passing on the inside while I am signalling to turn left, is a frequent occurrence here.

A man and his blond wife were watching the news when a story came on about a plane crash. The news anchor said that six Brazilian soccer players were on the plane and none of them survived. The wife started crying uncontrollably. The man was very concerned and asked his wife why she was so upset. She replied, "I don't know how many a brazillion is, but it sure sounds like a lot!"

If that is true, it's miraculous. If it's some sort of hoax, it's sick.

Anyone who has seen the videos in the other topics will be sure that there cannot be survivors - although I hope I'm wrong. Quite possibly many deaths amongst the local populous, as it crashed into a residential area.

IIRC - He accused the Privy Council of involvement in the coup, not the King himself. That may be his loophole.

Sound unbelievable. Is it true?

I'm trying to imagine how one would get poo on their arm. But, yes, I agree that wiping with paper would not be sufficient.

Mine was not a hit and run. Neither was I involved in the "accident". I was just trying to protect someone from harm. The threat of the small crowd was genuine - there is no "maybe"about it. As you weren't there you can't have any clue.

I am allergic to grass pollen (and quite a few others in the UK - my home country) but I have no allergies to pollen here in Thailand (AFAIK). Does that mean I am Thai?

My personal experience, from about 10-12 years ago. I was driving a comfortable distance behind a motorcycle on a 3-lane dual carriageway near Pattaya (Sukhumvit road near to Chaiyapruek junction). The bike hit a pothole and the rider was thrown over the handlebars and lay in the centre lane, apparently unconscious. I parked my car a few metres behind his body with the intention of preventing him from being run over by other traffic. So far so good. I then got out of my car and went to see if I could help the victim (at that time I was fit and qualified in first aid). He was coming round and had some very nasty road rash. I returned to my car to get a first aid kit and bottle of water, intending to help clean his wounds. In the meantime a group of maybe 7-8 locals had arrived and dragged him to the sidewalk (not a great idea). When I got back to him I was immediately surrounded by the locals and it was obvious that they blamed me for the accident - seeing my car in close proximity to the fallen rider - and were getting very agitated. At that point I was genuinely in fear for my safety. Lucky for me, the injured rider was fully conscious by now, and calmed everyone down. So, I can easily believe that someone might flee the scene in fear of assault. However, that person should report to a police station as soon as possible. That is the law in the UK - not sure about Thailand

If he's after expert advice, he could recruit some posters from our Covid-19 coronavirus sub-forum.

What is an allied citizen?

You don't think this is a tik-tok hoax?

It says "nearby" coral.

And, according to the OP, what we see in the photo is just half the height of the completed building.

Great suggestion.

Sorry, I quoted your post but I didn't mean to infer that you, personally, are careless about parents/kids on motorcycles.

Very early on in my driving experiences here in Thailand my wife (Thai) would constantly warn me about moms/dads/families/kids in the lanes ahead - they are unpredictable, so one needs to allow extra room when they are emerging from the left, or overtaking or turning left/right ahead of them.

Fishing, bicycle riding, bird spotting, drone flying (imo - with cameras is best), teach him to swim (or at least be able to float). Air rifle shooting or archery (at targets) is really popular with boys (IME).

Sounds like this is (at least partially) a failure of the police and local authorities to fix a well-known accident black spot. (Not excusing the pickup driver, but there is insufficient information here to apportion blame)
