Thanathorn produces traffic tickets to prove he was speeding to Bangkok to transfer his media shares

[Eligius]

Oh, oh, oh! This is clearly a capital offence - in the eyes of the junta. Speeding?! In Thailand?

Unheard of!

The guy should be disqualified and debarred from all political activity for life.

Actually, that's too lenient -  Thanathorn (and his seditious law professor sidekick) should be locked up till Doomsday ....

On further reflection, one might even consider decapitation - he (and his ilk) clearly deserves it!

Decapitation - is that a new type of coffee? 

 

Ok - decap ought to be applied to Srisuwan Janya - he's the serial complainer!

Speeding tickets prove nothing at all except that he was speeding. Surely there is a record of the shares being transferred; that evidence would prove far more convincing.

Who says he was in that car?

Next thing they'll find is that speeding is a valid reason to fire a MP. They'll cook something up eventually to prevent him from joining, he's too much of a threat to the status quo.

Or has the new points system started yet. If you had 3 tickets in 2 days in Oz your license would be cancelled immediately.

he can run but can't hide.... they will find something else, they will revoke is DL for speeding and a new charge as danger to society for driving reckless

You can transfer shares at home, there is no requirement to immediately register them.  As long as the transfer paper is signed and witnessed by someone then it is legal.

 

He could have transferred at a later date and back dated it.  Here lies the problem.

True, the applicable Thai law says the PM cannot have other jobs, and IMHO it should be that way, the good people of Thailand (or any country) have every right to expect their chosen PM devote all of his / her time to running country.  

Quite positive you being sarcastic considering Prayut has another job as singer and song writer. However if you meant chosen PM, Prayut is ruled out.

Yawn.

No not being sarcastic just stating facts.

There is no doubt prayut has lost the plot etc., as I have said here on TV many times, also perhaps someone (a very bored someone) would like to construct a similar list for all of your idols el, a very very long list.

I drive and speed a lot when it is safe. A drive a lot on the Pattaya motorway that supposedly has speed cameras. 

But I have never received any fines in the mail. Never had any problems paying the rego or renewing my license. 

 

Another couple of of times I received speeding/seat belt fines from coppers who didn’t require me to pay up front, and said I had thirty days (I think) to pay. I never paid them.

 

In Australia I had a set of reflective lenses so the cameras were unable to read my plates, but don’t have any here. 

 

Anyone know now why I never get fined, but Thanatorn copped three in two days? 

Try getting your Road Tax renewed with unpaid fines and see what happens..

Driving a Hyundai? Now I feel like a billionaire.

[Guest Jerry787]

Nothing. Got a few in 2015-17 and didn't bother, no problem getting a new tax sticker.

If it's his car and registered to him why shouldn't he be in it?
Anyway it's up those making the allegations to prove he wasn't in it.

Read my signature line below this comment. Thai instinctively know what's true and what is not in their country, farang, not so much. Of course Thai know this is nonsense, but the lie is good enough that no one is really bothered. All a good show.
