Road rage caught on video : Top cop calls for "jai yen" as summons issued

 

 

A top policeman has called for the Thai public to cool down their road rage.

 

The statement comes after two men - probably drunk - were caught coming out of a pick-up to smash up a car's windscreen.

 

Deputy chief of Samut Sakorn police Pol Col Plat Wisetsingh admitted that there were a lot of incidents these days, things happen fast and one cannot be sure of the intentions of others - good or bad.

 

He advised the Thai public to keep their cool and display "jai yen" (literally heart cool), reported Daily News.

 

The video that was posted on the "Chayawat-aksorn" Facebook page was taken on a phone. It showed two men emerge from a pick-up.

 

Despite the wai-ing and apologies from the driver of a car his windscreen gets smashed and the assailants take off.

 

Earlier there had been a minor traffic problem between the two vehicles in Petchkasem Soi 77. But the pick-up would not let the matter rest and hounded the other car until forcing it to come to a stop.

 

The poster said that armbands on the assailants and their general behavior indicated they were drunk.

 

Pol Col Plat said that the force were aware of the registration of the vehicle and had issued a summons to the driver.

 

He said that he had promised to come in for a chat later yesterday.

 

The incident occurred just after 1am on Thursday.

This is good advice, along with cold showers for rapists and meditation for murderers.

-Instead of coming out with stupid statements like Jai yen yen, police colonel plat ( prat) should instruct his men, put down your beer/ i-phones, get up off your a++es and lock the bar stewards up.

Usually when invitations are issued, instead of arrest warrants, it concerns someone untouchable.

 

I get the popcorn out for the follow up story, where get revealed that the driver is the son of a high ranked policeman.

Are the BIB going to fine this car driver for having a loud exhaust?

My experience with these loud cars is they want to be seen and heard

and maybe this time they met a few equals and usually this has a violent outcome.I could be wrong?

Run over that prick when he's in front of the car and plead as self-defence as he's clearly attacking you.

Was that the reason the guys windscreen was smashed, his car had a loud exhaust? I must have missed something. If that was the case then I have no sympathy for him. If there is one thing I hate, it is cars or motorbikes with loud exhausts.
