Popular Post webfact Posted August 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2018 Taxi driver fined for watching erotic video, improper dress while driving passenger By The Nation A taxi driver was fined Bt2,000 on Tuesday for watching a video disc and dressing improperly while transporting a passenger. Wirat Promthai reported himself to the Land Transport Department at 10am after a female passenger filed a complaint with the department against him. The passenger alleged that Wirat had watched a pornographic movie and had also removed his shirt in a suspicious gesture. After Wirat reported to the department, inspection division head Sukree Jaruphum, took him to check whether he had porn video discs in his car. The driver told Sukree had not watched pornography but rather a legal erotic movie, Mae Bia, which had been screened in theatres. Wirat said he was about to finish driving for the day and had taken off his blue shirt and left it on the back seat while he watched the movie. The movie was not pornography, he insisted, explaining that he had bought it just two days prior to the event. Wirat said that when the female passenger waved him to stop, he hesitated to pick her up but feared a complaint if he rejected a passenger. He said he did not intend to do anything illegal as he loves driving taxi and he had been in the job for 15 years. Sukree said the taxi driver came to meet the officials as summoned and has a clean record. The driver was fined Bt1,000 for dressing improperly and another Bt1,000 for causing a nuisance to a passenger.

Of course, he was going to put his shirt back on during intermission and get some popocorn at the local curtain motel. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anybody explain to me what a suspicious gesture in removing his shirt is.? Taxi drivers are obliged under law to dress respectably. This law is construed by police as wearing a shirt with a collar. Thus, it is suspicious that a taxi driver would commit an illegal act whilst transporting a passenger, particularly a female one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they should dress respectfully, but removed his shirt in a suspicious gesture, come on that is BS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Briggsy Posted August 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2018 Just now, colinneil said: Yes they should dress respectfully, but removed his shirt in a suspicious gesture, come on that is BS. The English translation contains an ambiguity. I suspect you have placed a construction on the sentence that the adverbial phrase "in a suspicious gesture" qualifies the verb "removed". So, you may have a mental image of the taxi driver taking off the shirt in the manner of a burlesque dancer. Naturally you find this ridiculous. However, I suspect the original Thai version had "in a suspicious gesture" as a clause with the subject "removing his shirt". That is to say the removal of the shirt in any manner whatsoever was in itself a suspicious gesture. I hope this clarifies the matter. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Misterwhisper Posted August 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2018 Was he also fined for steering a motor vehicle transporting passengers while watching a movie as he weaved through traffic? Or did that much more severe law infringement go unnoticed? 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post stud858 Posted August 14, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 14, 2018 Strange. Police didn't want to get involved when fire hoses got stolen and we knew who took them. But whenever sex is involved, bang, they're there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Novel way of proving it wasn't porn....Does porn change itself on a disk after the first two days from purchase date?

klauskunkel Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 The Land Transport Department together with the Tourist Authority of Thailand have issued a joint statement: Thai taxis are porn-free and there is no prostitution in Pattaya. The Governor of Bangkok chimed in as well: Bangkok park's are without sex, no bees and flowers, not even dry-humping going on. Finally the Thai government declared: The War on Sex has been won, all forms of intercourse have been successfully abolished. Thailand is a sexless desti-nation. ... the military is a bit worried now: How will we get future conscripts into servitude, and/or to kill? It appears the government has yet to realize the connection between sex and offspring... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stud858 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Flirting is ok. No issue. Once while in Jomtien.around Christmas time, immigration had a helper from outside. A very sexy lady dressed in a red and white skimpy Santa outfit. We chatted briefly as I thought wow, this is a bit odd to have in a professional office environment.but if it's ok with them it's is ok with me. The lady was really a man, but nothing wrong with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
