I have no idea about his financials, nor do you.

He may well be independently wealthy, no idea.

It is a fairly ordinary car though

Rude person

    How can a police doctor afford a new imported Porche? Is he a friend of Jo?

    Something seriously wrong when a statement like this even has to be made.

    Maybe he borrowed the Porsche from the police station's tea lady.  ????

Lord help us all from these kind of posts

Any idea how much a Thai doctor earns?

Any idea what the finance payments are on a porche with 200% import tax?

Blah Blah

 Thai doctors must be very well paid when they charge about 4000Bt for a Cvirus check before you fly out of the country, that is much more than a 7-11 girl/boy earns in a week. How long does it take to do a Cvius check, about 5 mins?

The Police General Hospital is a public hospital that anyone can use, it's not exclusive to members of the police force.

And the profit earned from that hospital goes where?

It's a public hospital, a government hospital, profits go to the government, obviously.   The hospital is not run by the police.

Described in the OP as " Lieutenant" which rather indicates that is he is a uniformed member...

In your mind.   He's a doctor.

Maybe he is independently comfortable and purchased it without regard to his income.

Could well be.  Unfortunately that won't go down well here, most members prefer their version that he's a corrupt RTP officer with a medical qualification, employed by the RTP as a doctor.

He's a doctor, not a "police doctor" a phrase you seem to be using to suggest that he's not paid that much.

Do you know how much a new Porsche costs in Thailand?? Doctor whoever he is, is obviously well remunirated wether it be legitimate or otherwise. To kill the occupants of a car from a rear impact means the guy must have been travelling at high speed! I wonder if the booze test of 44 should be 104???

There is a reasonable answer to that, he was not heading in the direction of the Police Hospital and there's no suggestion that he had just left work either.    It just says that he works as a doctor at the Police Hospital and that he was not over the limit.   To assume that he was drunk heading to work or had been drunk treating patients is ridiculous without evidence.

May be true but why give him with a military rank if he is not serving? 1. He is in active duty as a doctor with the police, 2 he did his lor dor and is a reserve Officer (army), 3 he is doing his military service at the police hospital.

He is described as a police doctor.

 

He is also described by the rank he holds in the police force. There is some confusion granted as to whether he is a Lieutenant or a Lieutenant Colonel, I rather suspect the latter.

 

Now it could be said that he is a senior police officer who is a doctor, or a doctor who is a senior police officer. It doesn't really matter which is put first, but the fact that the thrust of the report in the OP states that he will be granted no special favours because he is a police officer suggests to me (and I think many others) that it is one of, if not the primary considerations which his superiors want to establish.

The "doctor" of course may well be a highly qualified and well paid specialist with rights to private practice, as many do.

"A Police Hospital doctor..." 

He is not described as a "police doctor", the OP refers to him as a Police Hospital doctor (and later in the report just as a "doctor"), that's a doctor from a hospital called The Police Hospital.

Yes, I do know how much they cost.   Doctors usually are well remunerated particularly when it is usual in Thailand for them to have more than one position at different hospitals. 

Red Bull 2....coming soon to Dubai.

Big Envelopes coming to Thai officials.

They also mention his rank.

That rather leads to the conclusion that he is regarded by the police as " one of them".

No need for that, since they already declared him under the limit. The good doctor will be able to carry on with his life as normal once the financial settlement is complete and he shows some "remorse" in front of a judge. His insurance will probably cover all of it.

Red bull driver was stupid enough to flee the scene so now he has to rely on the statute of limitations. Otherwise he probably would have got off lightly with a suspended sentence.

Well, that's just your conclusion!

Well it is rather difficult to see what other conclusion could be reached!

 

However, enough is enough, you are obviously determined to pick a fight on the matter - however I am not interested.

No interest in picking a fight, either, lot's of interest in rational, evidence-backed discussion, though.

A direct quote from the OP:

"Lieutenant Phanurak - the doctor concerned".

 

A rational, evidence-backed case for assuming that he is a police doctor.

Equally rational and evidence-based would be to assume that, because he is referred to as "the doctor" (not the "police doctor") that's all he is, a doctor.
