VIDEO: Incident where woman took axe to car parked in front of her house given Grand Theft Auto treatment

 

 

A high profile incident in Thailand where a woman took an axe and shovel to bash a pick-up blocking her driveway has been turned into a computer game.

 

The incident made national news when the woman was filmed attacking the car.

 

However, it turned out that the father of the woman had died after he fell into a coma and could not be taken to hospital in time as someone was blocking the driveway.

 

Following coverage of the incident four markets which are located opposite the house have now been closed down, with authorities saying they were trading illegally.

 

On Saturday, a Facebook user played out the incident on the popular Grand Theft Auto computer game.

 

The GTA inspired video has amassed more than 700,000 views on Facebook alone.

Just goes to show doesn't it. Two factors are exposed here.

 

One, that archaic behaviour still prevails, in which four markets can set up shop without proper authority and without any action being taken.

 

And two, 'People Power' is beginning to have an effect in this country.

 

And maybe a third element. As the markets were illegal, who was accepting the 'brown envelopes' which allowed this situation to arise in the first place and continue for so long?

 

I still don't approve of resorting to criminal damage to get ones way. But sometimes, 'needs must'.

 

Well done ladies.

That video is the mutts nuts

Great new guidelines, in video format, on what to do when your next blocked in by an inconsiderate terry.

 

i wonder where this will eventually lead

Rather than mindlessly attacking the car with a shovel, she would have been better off just smashing one of the side windows, releasing the handbrake and pushing it out of the way.

Logically I'd agree with you.

 

However, there's emotion involved too. After years of being blocked in, and their father dying due to being unable to get to hospital, it's hardly surprising that something snapped.

 

I suppose the upside is the markets are (apparently) closed down, hopefully alleviating a lot a of the parking problems.
