[webfact]

 

A DISTRAUGHT foreign man who drove his sedan into a shop at Mueang Chonburi district, after trying to stop the traffic there drove off and hit three vehicles and a motorcycle injuring several people including himself who was rescued after his car overturned, Amarin TV said (Sep. 8).

 

The unidentified foreigner had taken his shirt off after ramming into the shop and walked up and down the middle of the road blocking the traffic and waving the vehicles to park by the road.

 

When one motorcyclist refused to do so, he tried to jump and kick him but he managed to escape.

Road rage ruckus: Foreign man’s Kung fu chaos takes a painful turn in Chon Buri (video)
by Petch Petpailin

A foreign man lost control of his senses and went on a rampage after crashing his car on Phraya Satcha Road in Chon Buri province. He attempted to kung fu one motorcycle rider, after crashing his SUV into four vehicles, and ended up being trapped inside his overturned car, suffering severe injuries.

 

A Thai motorist took a video of the incident this morning, September 8, and shared it online. In the video, the shirtless, bare-footed foreigner is seen crashing his white Subaru SUV into a roadside store and causing chaos on the road. The unnamed man of unknown nationality is believed to be about 40 years old.

 

 

The situation escalated when the foreign man got out of his car and approached other motorists asking them to stop. He attempted to kick a motorcycle rider in the head who refused to stop. Fortunately, the victim managed to avoid the attack.

The foreign man then got in his car and drove it toward the traffic flow, leading to collisions with three other cars and one additional motorcycle, ultimately resulting in his own vehicle overturning.

The foreign driver suffered severe injuries and was trapped within the wreckage, while five other victims, including a four year old boy, sustained injuries in the ensuing chaos.

Foreigner or local, doesn't really matter when you're an @$$! We all have issues, but involving others including a child to your misery is hell-bound. ????????‍♀️

Yes, perhaps he has mental issues. Although if it was caused by drug use, I would like to know which and steer clear of it. If I already partake, time to quit

Waiting for news about the police rounding up all sedan-driving "kung fu" foreigners and denying their Visa extensions (or just plain deporting them) like they said they were going to do with all (foreigners) wearing 1% patches on their motorcycle vests.

Of all the things that this fellow might have lost through his life, he might very well be missing his mind the most....

It will probably turn out to be a Brit on a marriage visa.

Lots of alcohol improves my kung fu skills too...

Ex marriage visa

Clearly got issues, who hasn’t and who cares if others get hurt. There’s already enough farang nutters here. Fine heavily, deport and ban. Just don’t take it out on the rest of us that behave.

3 to 1 odds he is british....5 to 1 he is aussie.

I have been driving in Thailand for over 30 years. 
Road safety is one of the country's biggest issues in my opinion.

I'm not defending the person in the article, and I don't know the whole story. 
But driving here every day, you accumulate so much frustration and even anger because they drive so poorly. He probably snapped.

Isn't it against the law to drive without a shirt on in Thailand?
