After reading the first line, I thought, 'yeah pissed up, probably ran away' -- and what happened - speechless....

Yes, speculation is a wonderful thing.  No one has confirmed yet that he was pissed but it has been confirmed that he was taken to hospital with two broken legs so the chances of his running away are kind of remote.

Even the unborn get mercilessly mown down from any and every direction in this maniac driving land????

Why?  Has he been found culpable of something yet or is speculation enough to justify your suggestion?

Speculation is good enough for me, look at the pictures. Yes, I believe P-driver was at fault, even though the bike rider shouldn't have been on the road due to unpaid tax and insurance.

By the way what exactly are normal people and how do they think

People who don’t jump red lights, drive 1m behind you, think me, me, me first, drive and text / speak on phone, have 1/2 dozen people in the back of a pick up, threaten to shoot you for using your horn, will never let you out of a junction, ride a motorbike with entire family on board with no helmets, no lights on motorbikes, swerve in and out of traffic.

 

and that’s just on the road.

 

need I go on?

No, that indicates only the registered owner which may, or may not, be the driver at that time.

Unconfirmed reports suggested that the Porsche driver was picked up by friends and taken away from the scene.

 

It was alleged that no help was given to the other victims. Further claims were made that the Porsche driver had earlier been seen drinking alcohol. 

disgusting - these scum left 2 young women bleeding to death, get away before police arrived  - sounds like they didn't even phone an ambulance 

 

were they racing, how did his friends get there so quick

 

I hope the driver spends a very long time in jail for this slaughter

“Further claims were made that the Porsche driver had earlier been seen drinking alcohol”

 

Copied and pasted from the article. 

 

I guess your way of thinking would be that he if he had been drinking, he’d only just have had one, and was within the legal limit. 

 

Looking at the time of the crash, and the state of the car, it’s pretty obvious what’s gone on here. 

this is exactly why i own a large car. lots of steel (ok aluminum) around me for when some drunk comes to wipe me out. 

Looking at the Porche, the driver's compartment appears to be in good condition. I doubt the driver has two broken legs. My guess is he ran away so he would not be breathalyzed.

it has nothing to do with religion, it has to do with consequences; in the west if you hit and run you know that you will a) probably be caught and b) there will be consequences for the accident plus added consequences for running away, in thailand there is an inept, inefficient, unprofessional and corrupt police force and judicial system, so people know they can get away with it, so of course they run.

It's not against the law to leave the scene of an accident. Absolutely bonkers isn't it!

Capt Napasakon said that the Porsche driver was in hospital with two broken legs.

A drunken loser in a Porsche. What a terrible Combination.

Until evidence come out, the Porsche driver is presumed innocent. Considering how most of the motorbikes are driven here, might be bikes fault.

Sure you can...... if you want. But in this case money is No. 1

We all know how this will end don't we. The only winners will be the BIB holding the envelopes. 

Incredible, what a mess. RIP to the victims

She also lost her baby

Tern died, Oo's baby died (1+1=2)  the headline is wrong. 

 

The rich kid driving the Porsche will be fined a pittance.  Wouldn't want to impair his ability to purchase a new Porsche by imposing a realistic penalty!

The doctor at the hospital (where the driver is now) don't agree with you.

But the people who took the driver to hospital seemingly left two ladies dying on the road.

One lady, not two and perhaps they were being treated by rescue services, does the report say that they weren't?  It sure does not say that they were unattended and left to die there, does it?

It is 'alleged'.

I based my use of the word 'seemingly' on this statement:

It was alleged that no help was given to the other victims.

I'm sure that the police have already leapt into action:

1. Is the driver a police officer or a close relative of a police officer? if Yes Go to #10

2. Is the driver a high-ranking military officer? if Yes, Go to #10

3. Is the driver rich but not really well-connected? if Yes Go to #11

4. Is social media making you look bad? if Yes, announce that you are investigating the case and Go to #11

#10. Do nothing. 

#11. Get the Porsche driver or his parents to pay you lots of money to do nothing.
