Video: Taxi goes through a wall at a house - "I was being robbed at knifepoint", he claims

 

Picture: Sanook

 

Sanook reported that a pink taxi went through a wall of a house at 5 am this morning, early enough for everyone to be in bed and asleep so thankfully uninjured.

 

A video post by "NRatchakrich" on Twitter said that the driver had disappeared. 

 

A subsequent post said that the taxi driver reappeared after washing his face and rinsing out his mouth.

 

He told police on the scene that he had crashed into the wall because he was being held up at knifepoint by a passenger.

 

Police listened patiently to this explanation clearly having heard such nonsense before. 

 

The breathalyzer was taken out and the driver raised his hands in a wai in an effort to not blow into the device. 

 

When he did, all became clear - he was drunk.

To be fair, it is a more interesting excuse than failed brakes.

Maybe he was delivering breakfast but the breaks failed?

Yeah that´s right. You can hear it on the word breakfast. If you don´t break it´s going to hell fast.

Actually it's not a bad excuse. He just didn't go far enough.

 

What he should have said is 'he was being held up at knifepoint by a passenger who forced him to drink alcohol'

finders keepers ?

Seeing how insurance wont be paying the repairs, maybe a nice glass sliding door would be the right choice.

Or turn the house into a full drive through

I can't believe how relaxed and softly spoken the guy was in the Vid, I would have been shouting "WHAT THE <deleted><CK''
