webfact Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Video: Good Samaritan helps a Thai drunk driver Caption: He was drunk and set to cause accidents Mobile phone footage showed a drunk driver weaving all over the road and nearly colliding with oncoming traffic several times. The driver of the vehicle behind decided to take matters into his own hands to avoid there being an accident. With the help of people at a coffee shop he managed to get the drunk driver out of his vehicle and park it for him. The Good Samaritan said he was able to stop safely and help in this situation. He had been in the car with his mother. He told Thai Rath that he didn't want to drive on and leave the man in that state because he would have an accident for sure. In the end relatives of the drunk man were called to come and pick him up. The hero of the hour warned people no to drink and drive.

Popular Post Lungstib Posted June 5, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2019 I followed a car being driven in a similar manner and actually got the driver to stop in order to berate me right outside the local police station. I got two young uniformed men to come out and see the awful state of the driver who who so bad he could hardly speak and wouldn't attempt to get out of his seat. The police refused to do anything and let him continue straight on up the road and past the local school. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly a disgrace to the uniform they have on. Maybe there are some good ones. but the bad, sure out weighs the good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
