Reading your last sentence i suggest it is time to increase the dose of your meds Lol, Lots of Thais don't wear shirts. What is the saying "when in Rome do as the Romans do" Or are you making the suggestion Thais don't wear shirts because they can't afford to buy shirts lol and it has nothing to do with Thai culture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s hope he was just watching a normal movie while driving his car. Haha yes, isn't it funny how the focus is purely on what type of movie it was (and how he was dressed) rather than the safety aspect of "errr you should be concentrating on the road rather than watching a video"!!!!! Absolutely priceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotchilli Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 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. So he was about to finish driving for the day, which means he was actually still working?? Already took off his shirt, already started to watch the movie (while driving) couldn't resist to pick-up another pasenger didn't bother to put his shirt back on, didn't bother to close the movie... lots of contradictions in his quickly made up BS story!! throw the book at the disgusting excuse for a taxi driver...

GTgrizzly Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 23 hours ago, Briggsy said: 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.

JGV Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Repeat the point why is it seen to be Ok to watch anything while driving a taxi People here live in a pure fantasy world and there isn't any control over dangerous actions The erotic video is not relevant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was me, I would have told the driver to look at the road not the movIe and no more ( sherman tanking ) I then could have then watched it myself from the back seat, no harm done. But if it had been two ladyboys or two gay guys going at it. I would have been most offended and immediately asked him to change the DVD, to a move suitable Hetrosexual type of movie. So yes, the erotic video is relevant. Edited August 16, 2018 by stanleycoin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falangjim Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 It wasn't too long ago, I caught a cab on Silom after 1am. The driver wanted to let me know that he had a hard on. The fare came to 70 bhat, but I handed him a 100 baht note and got out right quick! Seven years here and first time I had a pervert driver.
