anon789561 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 can't see the insurance paying for that especially now it's in the news. 4 million baht for a car worth about 1.5 million elsewhere and now burnt out. this kid and his family sure know how to burn money alright. anyway, UK boarding school it would seem and they are due back in a week or say, no doubt he won't miss his 1st day back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That suggests 86% of accidents are caused by Thai males. Not quite. 10% are males, 76% are ladyboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai women, almost universally, drive silver Toyota Vios's. As soon as I see a silver Toyota Vios on the road ahead of me, I think to myself, "Now I've got a problem".

berybert Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Not read all the replies but has anyone mentioned 5 people in a truck with 2 seats maybe 3 ? 4 kids could quiet easy have been killed because the seat belts wouldn't have been made to fit them anyhow.

Skeptic7 Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 9 hours ago, TD2312 said: 4 million baht...for a Mustang?? From a 2013 article... How much does it cost? Ford hasn't revealed the pricing for the new Mustang yet. But when it goes on sale in April next year _ on the 17th, which is exactly 50 years after the original birthday of this galloping horse _ the cheapest version is set to cost upwards of the equivalent of 1.4 million baht in the UK. Even if that translates to around 4.5 million baht by the time it gets to Thailand (including all kinds of taxes totaling 328%, to be precise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why gullible?? they are very rich as so many are here and so makes not much difference if 1.2 or 4 or 10 million!! and Thailand is not the only country where imported cars are very expensive ,try Singapore for a start..worse than Thailand.Comparing prices to USA where they are made is not really comparative or fair,many countries have high import taxes on vehicles.What is not fair is that a hard working normal Thai can never buy a decent interesting car as out of there reach hence why so many pick ups on the road and boring jap crap.

From the linked article. The OP made no mention of a pickup, it just reported that it was a truck. Also from the OP link, "Five meters away, the truck he hit had collided with a utility pole". That is what flipped the truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why he changed his mind! Getting transferred to the Koh Samui Police must be a sought-after position. He didn't change his mind. Initial reports and Wiwat's report are two different things, he didn't make the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard_smith237 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 Is there any report on thr cause of the accident? Was the Mustang speeding? Or... Did the truck pull out in front of the Mustang without looking? (Both are very possible)... Most of the comments come across as bitter and jealous attacks against a kid born into privilege. As if these same posters are so morally sound they'd have divorced their families if they were to be gifted a cool car in their 20's.... A truck, on thr riad in the early hours... Poor labourer (truck driver) poor eyesight? Tired? Distracted by kid in the car? A kid in a Mustang in the early hours? Been drinking? Speeding? Any of the above is probable - but to solely target the kid seems to highlight a certain level of bias against youth and jealousy of privilege....

I got this story mixed up with another and just re-read the opening article... 17 year old. No licence. Accident. Son of someone in a position of influence...(Although it's seems there is an attempt to gloss over this). Parents are to blame for letting their son drive without a licence & thus should be charged as such. Or, the car was stolen by the son, who should be charged with such & driving illegally. I see this news item blending into the silent invisible mist... No one was killed after-all... Until it happens again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
