Drunk and mangled big biker: I wanna go home - I've got no money

 

Picture: Sanook

 

Sanook reported that Sawang Boriboon rescue foundation in Pattaya were called when a Honda CBR 650 slammed into the back of a Toyota Fortuner at the lights near Big C Extra in Central Pattaya. 

 

Manish Jalhotra, 38, a Pattaya entertainment venue owner, was at the wheel of the Fortuner. 

 

The 25-30 year old rider of the Honda had a broken leg and road rash. He was very drunk, said Sanook. 

 

He was largely incoherent but did manage to be understood when he said while being loaded up to go to hospital:

 

"Who's gonna pay my hospital bills? I've got no money. Take me home - I don't want to go to hospital". 

 

The girlfriend of the Indian said they were waiting at the lights when they were hit with force from behind - an impact that shunted them to the side of the road. 

 

Sanook reported that the back of the Fortuner was damaged and a tire was punctured.

And rent a large bike rather than a smaller one at about 150 baht.day. 

Drunk riding a machine like that, lucky just to break a leg!

not sure the nationality of the rider of the bike but unless I am reading this all wrong the driver of the pickup was stopped at the lights (Indian) and was rear ended by the bike rider who was drunk. I have absolutely no sympathy for the drunk driver - it is just luck that only he was injured, it could have been anyone

 

I was out last night and was walking home in the small hours (I have a motorbike that stays at home when I go out), I constantly fear being hit by a drunk driver and I am very careful during my journey to have a clear view of all vehicles both behind and in front of me as I walk because quite a number of them will be drunk - 2am onwards right to 6am it is very dangerous on these roads as drunks drive home  

Indian owns a entertainment venue in pattaya. I imagine he doesnt have much money, the local thugs are probably busy ripping him off.

...and who owns much of Sukhumvit in Bangkok say from soi 11 upwards? Especially around 33 Thonglor/Ekamai etc. 

 

He is probably third or fourth or higher generation Thai of Indian descent. Speaks fluent Thai and knows all the right people as he went to school with them.

Not to mention the ladyboys that are riding around on their scooter on the hunt.

No sympathy too for the drunk driver, i hope that besides the hospital bill they will give him a high fine. People who drink and drive deserve all that they get.

 

You were 100% right the Indian was sitting in the car it was the Thai who hit him.

 

Lucky that this guy did not injure someone else.. only sad part is that the Indian his car is damaged. Would have been better if the drunk hit a concrete post or something. Selfish pricks drinking and driving (same goes for other drugs)

Either  "suckers" or people with a vast amount of compassion. Semantics, really.

Compassion for a drunk, uninsured, broke rider? I don't think so.

200bht to get drunk, 14,000bht to get home.

It's much cheaper to get drunk, and a lot more fun than going to your home country.

Clearly the Indian's fault: Why stopping at a red light ? It's not India here...

Interesting they described the Driver of the car " Indian" but not the pathetic Rider????????

Absolute gutter trash. One could wish he would get a lengthy prison sentence in a Thai prison and then be banned for life, but that's likely way too much to hope for.

he dont have, so the only remaining options is:

dont be honest and dont pay the bill,

or be honest you cant afford the hospital,

which of the two do you prefer ?

When I lived in Pattaya my Mum always thought I was in Taiwan. But she was in her eighties. What's your excuse?

Not that interesting, the only reason they are in this news at all is because they were rear ended while being foreign in Thailand, the fact than the person that hit them is not foreign is not newsworthy, just that they hit a foreigner.

Definitely not covered by any insurance policy in the world. And he was drunk too !
