“The sedan driver came to me and asked me to take a photo of a different BMW sedan which was parked on the roadside. He told me that this sedan crashed with my motorbike and not him, despite me and witnesses clearly seeing what happened and the other car being parked and driverless.” Wilawan stated.

with high fines of 500 THB and no responsibilties and a lot of excuses and wais, it is just a common routine in Thailand.... So no news...or maybe something is terribly wrong??

It has something to do with the training.

Hopefully there is surveillance video of it.  Then if he actually is a police officer something is still done about it.
