Now, why would a 'song thaew' driver have an empty beer bottle in his cab?

Correction, recovering !

To clarify, I am recovered from a seemingly hopeless state of mind and body. Alcohol is not an issue any more, it never ends my head to take a drink. These are two of the three facets of the disease, a physical allergy after taking one drink, and a mental obsession that I can drink normally.

The third is a spiritual malady.

I am recovering spiritually on a day to day basis. 

This recovering alkie is bs from treatment centres.

The AA text book only talks about being recovered alcoholics, never recovering.

Someone threw the bottle at him, flew in through the open window and landed in the cab.  What other possible explanation could there be?

Do we really want Thailand to have the strict rules of our home countries?

Although I'm totally against drunk driving, one small can of beer doesn't make one drunk.

 

Personally, I love the freedom here and say have small can of beer, and <deleted> to the UK, who fine you for eating a sandwich while driving or Oz, who fined me for facing the wrong way while parked on a quiet residential street for 5  min.

 

Many of these guys are alcoholics and although wrong, they would be unsafe to drive unless having that morning beer. 

 

On a side note, I failed my first driving test in the  UK. I passed my second one after 2 strong beers and a packet of extra strong mints. I was an alcoholic then.

 

 

 

And still are?

Personally, given the choice, I would rather have a driver who doesn't need a few drinks to function but hey, that is just me.

"To pee into, perhaps ?  '

Physics comes into play here when one considers the inside diameter of the neck of a beer bottle, versus the OD.of the hose attached to the user, in this case, a Thai songtaew driver.

"Comfort bottles" are available at many pharmacies. It gives one a chance to boast that at least you have " a pot to piss in .":tongue:

And I thought that was only in the U.S.
