The Benz driver was female so are you referring to the motorcyclist?

Why Thai people call a Mecedes Benz just Benz? It is a Mecedes 

If you're going to complain about their speech or pronunciation, at least spell the name wright and use the correct verbs.

What makes you think that she is a "rich bastard".   I'm sure that if she had attempted to murder the rider or intended to cause GBH, those charges would be made.  As it is, she is being charged with, the appropriate, reckless driving causing injuries to others.

Looks like miss yum yum was making a left turn into the soi across at least two lanes (as chinese drivers seem to do).

She musta missed this question on her Thai driver's license test.

Judgement for the Thai dude.

Judgement?   Why?   Maybe you meant "justice"?

And although it's seen as a hi-so car in Thailand they are used as taxis in Germany. I love that. Oh, the shame, the humiliation, the loss of face.

As for shortening things, normal in Thailand. Motocy(cycle), paracet(amol) etc.

In every thread where a Merc is mentioned there is always someone who points out that its used as a Taxi in Germany....  !!....  But, really, who cares... Its still nicer than an Altis !!

 

& thats irrelevant to the thread....   A person drove a car cutting across two lanes and cut off a motorcycle. 

 

Whatever the nationality, whatever the car, whatever the sex of the driver - mistake was made through driving without care and attention and possibly even breaking traffic rules. 

 

 

The photo clearly shows the car driver to be completely at fault.

I hope the motorcyclists is justly compensated and the driver faces appropriate charges.

But was it?

There is a traffic signal just before that U-turn.

Did the motorcyclist, and the car he seems to be undertaking, blow through a red light?

I witnessed an accident at this junction around 4 years ago in the early evening whilst travelling from Pattaya Thai - as is the silver 4 door saloon (and blue Juke). My line of traffic had a green light, which was about to change. There were only 2 vehicles - me and a white pickup on the inside (left of me). As I went through the (changing) lights, a scooter with 2 on it sped from the road opening on my right - just passing behind me going towards soi khao talo, just as the white pickup was approaching to drive straight past soi Khao talo (then on his right). The scooter ran straight into the right - front - side of the pickup with an almighty bang, that was actually like an explosion. Being as there was no other traffic in my line / going in my direction, I was able to briefly look across and see that the scooter had totally disintegrated, as had the front right side of the white pickup. I scanned online for details of this accident the following day but never found it. Conclusion - from the above accident and what I witnessed, is that this junction needs rethinking/redesigning.

Same reason they call a mini a Khu-perr.

I hope the Thai motorcyclist makes a full recovery and the Merk driver's Daddy pays him full compensation!

A couple of errors in your rant. 

1. It was a woman. 

2. Not rich, I'd say she is a 'want to be rich person', it's a little Benz, these smaller models are not expensive. 

 

I'd say the guy on the bike, not necessarily poor, probably riding illegally (unlicensed, no tax), probably not wearing a helmet and riding at speed. 

 

So Columbo, thanks for your mistaken input.

sorry, should read (4th line down) "then on his left".

You seem intimidated by successful people.

Life didnt really work out for you.

Dont forget we pay most of the taxes for you poor people and provide you with jobs.

How about a bit of appreciation and respect for us.

Mate, there was NO humour in what you originally said, as for the rest of our discussion, I simply replied to you.
