He already paid 20,000 baht to the victim and will pay another 30,000 baht today.  Read the original story again.

The accident had happened. The driver didn't flee. No hit n run

Actually, if you had read the full story, you would have discovered:

Quote

Police say that the drunk driver hit the victim before fleeing the scene, but the group of win drivers quickly followed and managed to stop the car at the Rama 9 intersection, which is when the victim lay on the bonnet, as seen in the clip.

No No, it's brake failure.

Yep, and add:  come in to pay the 10Baht (if you really want to), whenever convenient, or we can send a senior out to your house to pick up the cash or you can pay the officer by QR code. 

At least the motorbike taxi rider got 50,000 out of it. and the driver is looking at 2 to 6 years and up tp 100,000 fine. That gives something for the RTP to negotiate with.

 

When the moto driver recovers, give him 20 minutes alone in a room with the hit-and-run driver.  

 

That should sort things nicely.

Were the brakes drunk?

It wasn’t exactly a hit and run case. More like hit…run. The mocy rider would’ve quickly seen the $$$ signs. No way I’m gonna let this opportunity slip, he must’ve thought. He didn’t seem hurt enough if he was able to hop on the bonnet and hang on to it. 
The rider and his mates are probably at a bar eating, drinking, tipping pretties courtesy of the moron kid.

Ah, you're right. I missed that part. Haha.

 

Yeah, he should be charged with a DUI.

 

But the motorcycle taxi driver seemed to sustain no injuries from the actual accident itself, but rather from his own actions from how he treated someone's property.

 

I don't think the driver should be held responsible for his injuries as he was willingly laying on the car. Clearly a wannabe police officer. He's due a career change, haha

Why do you ignore the point that the mc driver who ended upon upon the bonnet is very probably trying to stop the driver from fleeing?

It happens often of course.Will they catch him don,t know,but i assume he is long gone somewhere for awhile

 

BAN HIM FOR LIFE never mind taking points of his licence IF HE EVER HAD ONE !!!!!!!!

You think that you do but posting tired old clichés proves that you don't.

Why is he hanging onto the bonnet while the car is stationary?

 

Obviously, it was an attempt to prevent him driving off.

At this point, I don't think it's a hit n run. So long as the driver went straight to the police as per the law, I reckon no charges besides careless driving for the initial accident (if the initial accident was even the car driver's fault)

 

They tried to take the law into their own hands and messed up.

Perhaps you could have just read the link then those involved wouldn't need your "armchair legal" input.

So much speculative garbage; what about the damage to his bike, doesn't he deserve compensation for that, even if he was uninjured (he wasn't uninjured)

Why?  Is that what happens in your country or you just want that draconian rule for Thailand?

You're particularly bad at guessing correctly, aren't you?

Plastic bag anyone?

He expected, from the "get go", that the driver would to try to make off (like what they frequently do).

 

He aimed to discourage the driver from attempting to drive away.

 

It      didn't      work.

 

 

Start by jailing this sort of offence for say, hmmm ... let me think ... 3 to 5 years and see what happens to the drunk driving rates.

Cos it's not his job.

 

He isn't a police officer 

parents are partly responsible.

rich parents spoiling their kids, giving them a fast car at age 20.

I think you’re confusing comments with speculation. Borderline abusive replies to a few contributors here I can see.
