Lewis Hamilton drove ok when he was 18.

 

But he wasn't Thai so that was OK.

Nah its an old truck, most likely paid out the 7yr load term already !

But it was the roads fault ?

Or the fact he was using his mobile phone, did the police not think to look at phone call list. Oh silly me thinking that the Pattaya can actually think!!!!!!!!!!

What would a list of phone calls prove ?  Unless you have the exact time of impact, a call could be made before/after the actual accident. Even if there is a record of a call that corresponds to the accident, it could be a call made hands free.

1,843,934 cars apparently didn't encounter such "slippery" conditions before the accident.

 

I would blame the farang for throwing a banana peel on the road.

Can you imagine the carnage if Thailand ever experienced snow or ice.... 95% wouldn't make it out the end of the Soi !

Pattaya Plod believe these tales all the time - especially those wrapped in banknotes.

If that darned bridge hadn't been there, no problem.  Another 18 year old skilled driver. What will daddy say?

Daddy will say

Whether or not there is a hands free set can be determined by looking... actually hands free means no hands on the steering wheel as both the phone and a cigarette are managed....
