Me, me, me, I am right and he is wrong, Ok, is it really worth the hassle, pay the fare take his number and report it to the tourist police, end of story. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be foolish to confront a lawless punk. So yes, I prefer to foul him sneaky, without apologies to pompous internet trolls. Read what Matt99 wrote. Eat crow.

hellohello123 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Let me simply ask a simple question to those blaming the farang and saying the driver did no wrong.... "Do you think any of this would ever happen if the driver did what he is supposed to do by law, ethics and taxi rules bu simply turning the meter on without being asked?"

1happykamper Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 if i am wrong it does not mean that sombody get a right to offend me. brave enough to do this? face tough repercussions. only those who want to offend people with impunity cant agree with thisYou sound like a man looking for a fight. In Thailand, especially, oftentimes the brave man end up dead or in the hospital. You should be careful.

Tofer Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 10 hours ago, Matt96 said: if I were this taxi driver and a cocky farang would say "<deleted> you" to me - i would beat the shit out of him regardless on any repercussion. but he thought "thais are polite, they tend to forgive. so I can get away with this" the moral obligation of any decent man is to prove him how wrong he is. in my whole life i never ever let anyone who said "<deleted> you" to me run away without repercussions. and I never regretted for punishing them "Moral obligation.... decent man"?? Never heard the expression "sticks and stones may break my bones but calling (words) can never hurt me"! It would appear the taxi driver was of a normal balanced nature, not an aggressive a...e hole!

falangjim Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I want to shake this man's hand; buy the lad a beer. Fn annoying some of these pricks are driving taxis. I've waited in queues specifically marked meter only to have 500 baht demanded. Of course I get out. On Silom they try to triple my fare instead of using the meter. What I know is 80 bht by meter is 200 bht. The driver gets my middle finger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked a question. You cannot and could not answer it so you resorted to your usual nonsense.
