Motorcyclists riding on the sidewalk are in the news again. 

 

But this time it was much more serious than just an annoyance for a young pedestrian in Bangkok. 

 

Issara, 26, went to the Sai Mai police after he was hit by a food delivery rider at the end of Sai Mai Soi 78.

 

He had just bought some electrical items from a shop and yelled after the rider to be careful.

 

Not content with riding illegally on the sidewalk the rider walked back and a full on ding-dong ensued in which Issara was almost knocked unconscious. 

 

Later in the day a contrite Bunrit, 20 - the man with a tattooed face like a demon according to Daily News - strolled into the police station to admit it was him.

 

He promised not to do it again and be a better person in the future.

 

Police are charging him with riding on the sidewalk and common assault.

5th grader is he .... 

What's the IQ level of a person that tattoo's their face like this guy?

By the look of him, is just the regular guy with a bad self confidence, that is still searching for a group to fit in.

With these kind of tattoos on his face, I would say not more than 3rd grade!

Nice 'tash Bro.

 

Not quite Burt Reynolds, but it's the thought that counts. ????

I try not to judge people with tattoos but it's just so difficult.

Is that anything like a Hostess Ding Dong?

Just a bit of a “ding-dong”, nothing to see here

Judging from the video of the incident he is a nasty piece of work and needs locking up. Almost killed the guy.

Maybe a mix up at the tattoo parlour...................

And the fantastic corporate company that he delivers food for should have some accountability for what their contractors do when delivering food on their behalf and yet they take no responsibility and offer no governance, just keep sucking up the profits generated.

Line actually.

 

Sorry Bunrit, Mike Tyson you ain't.

While i suspect this isn’t “Thailand” style per se, I’d like the see the employers of these people also be charged as facilitators or, if there was reasonable foresight, then co-conspirators if you will.  

 

That way, the victim has both a physical person that can be sanctioned (ie incarcerated) as well as a more well-funded corporate entity from which the judiciary can now assess serious monetary penalties from and/or the victim can move forward with a civil suit.

 

 

 

It’s my opinion only that some, if not much of the so-called bad-driver behaviors could be either eliminated or severely cut back if you make it such that their employers take the heat - the employers get fined for sidewalk driving, for careless driving etc.

 

The corporate entities understand economics… as as soon as the costs to have and use with drivers who then go out and commit bad-driver acts A B, C, goes up to the point that they’re pinched financially, THEN you’ll see action. 

 

Sure, the companies will put the squeeze on the driver to “knock it off” …. you bet.. but at some point where the costs rise to a point that using bad drivers is just too expensive … or … the companies policies have to be modified so that better driver compliance can be met. 

 

Follow the money.
