Black Angus Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Apart from any sentence he should or may receive, his Taxi -bike license must be taken away, if only to stop him offending again. But I don't suppose this will happen. Sadly they do not do Sensible 99% off the time in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrongTree Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The taxi driver should not be driving, he may lose his temper at any moment. The taxi needs his taxi license taken away, as he admits, he’s annoyed easily. No one should be driving people around with a short fuse. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I avoid them as much as possible, they are lose cannons, and aren't afraid of pulling a gun or knife, or getting their mates involved, gutless, uneducated thugs in my opinion who would start running as soon as they found themselves on the receiving end, but they all stick together even if they don't know each other, it's as if to say, it's them or us "mentality".

SupermarineS6B Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 The mentality of immature vindictive children, sanctioned by their supposedly betters...... One thing about all this C19 pandemic has been a very necessary revealing of the beasts true nature...... I think Thailand will be dreaming for a long time about attracting tourists back to a country that shows very little compassion for fellow human beings...... and deservedly so.......

He has made himself a victim. Nah, he's like a lot of tourists/foreigners in Thailand, he doesn't know what he's dealing with, he's expecting compassion from a fellow human being, sadly that was his mistake...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not this time but chances are we'll never get a follow-up news story so won't even know. Maybe that's part of the problem, little follow up by reporters to put the consequences on record for the public to see. If the police know they are being held accountable for holding criminals accountable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangkokReady Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 14 hours ago, Kaopad999 said: I know what you're saying, but, if you're jacked and look like you can handle yourself, then bullies are a lot less likely to bother you. The kid looks skinny as heck , and very feeble. Sadly, a prime target for bullies... Putting on a bit of muscle can also help with simply being able to repel/push an attacker away, you don't need to actually "fight back". A bit of weight makes you harder to push around literally. Also you're bound to get improved hand-eye coordination and carry yourself more confidently. You'll also get a bit more respect. If you look more masculine and threatening, people will feel differently about you. Not even in terms of fear, so much as you have a better "presence". If you look like an action hero, people will treat you differently than if you look like a bit of a scrawny geek. Not nice, but that's just human nature. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waders123 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Just what a victim needs while recovering from a brutal assault; a fruit basket. The victim needs to be compensated for his medical expenses and money for his pain and suffering, not to mention the vacation "downtime" because he is laid up recovering and can't get on with his vacation. Mandatory Jail time for this taxi bike driver and anger management if he is allowed to stay as a taxi bike driver. Probably the Wai, verbal apology, and fruit basket is likely all the victim will receive, and the bike taxi driver will continue to do business as usual as though nothing happened. This just reinforces that it is ok to attack anyone that angers him and not have serious consequences with the law. If Thailand want to improve their image, (they keep saying they do), then this would be a good time to start. I hope I am proved wrong and the laws of Thailand prevails in favor of the victim.

upu2 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 If Thailand is serious about getting a good International immage then this guy who was responsible for the crime has to be given a serious jail sentence. Anything less and the image that the TAT wants for Pattaya will just drift further over the horizon. Serious action speaks in a positive way to the world, a bunch of flowers does nothing. Incidentially, I assume the Win Driver is paying the guys hospital bills. Can anyone confirm this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
