I still urge you to talk to a good lawyer,if you think this case will solve itself you are terrible naive.

Police will not follow up,you need to take action!

I thought you were smarter than that.

if the laws were like in the west you wouldn't be getting laid on the cheap.

 

so you like the nanny state or not?

 

or is Thailand only bad when something bad happens to YOU?

   Was it accidental or deliberate ?

I doubt that he would have even noticed if your bag just brushed his car as claimed .

If you deliberately punched or kicked his car and drove off , they may have viewed it as you starting the confrontation

I don't believe anything I do will have any effect except to leave me with less money in my bank account.

If I were Thai it might be different, but only if my family had more money/connections than his family.

This is a deeply corrupt country with no rule of law or justice for locals, let alone foreigners.

 

If you have enough money you can even kill policemen with impunity.

Not forgetting this is the land where the Red Bull heir wiped out a copper and eluded any form of justice 🤔 

Apparently, my misses thinks things are happening but very slowly.

(I've told her I won't be bringing anymore money into Thailand until this guy is in jail)

 

It's frustrating that a foreigner speaking rudely to a Thai doctor gets instant court action.

But a Thai attempting to kill a foreigner is not important!

This is such a sad and disturbing story. I am not going to add any needless armchair opinions or suggestions about taking action, etc. However, I wish you all the best and hope that you are able to make a full physical recovery. I also hope you are not in any danger of having any further issues related to this event. If something like this happened to me I might consider leaving the country and going to live elsewhere. I suspect there could be some PTSD issues from a traumatic experience like this and perhaps living somewhere else and in a new environment could help you to more easily forget what happened so that you can go on living a happier life. All the very best to you.

I would also like to hear the detail that has triggered this guy.

 

I suspect there is something he is choosing to keep to himself.

Unfortunately, this sad but true.

I have heard of stories where Thai judges have declared in the favor of a Thai national in an accident even though the accused was in the wrong stating that the accident would have never happened if the foreigner was not in the country🙄....

Surprisingly, 4 months later, I'm almost back to normal health wise.

Lots of scarred skin on my arm and leg, lost some movement in my shoulder, but I've just started my 20Km cycle rides again.

Its reactive.

 

What if your bad attitude towards people in general resulted in this situation...albeit incredibly disproportionately

 

When you respect other people's property, maybe you don't squeeze through that gap thats just a bit too tight. Chaos theory and all that.

That's great news. I'm very glad to hear it. They say that there is always a silver lining in everything and I guess if there is any silver lining in any of this then it is the fact that you survived and are still thriving and being prosperous and productive with your life, which is indeed a blessing.
 

The notion that the things in life that don't kill you can often make you stronger also comes to mind. 🙏🏻

I've never considered killing or assaulting a Thai that bumped my car, for any reason, from any position.

When they squeeze between the gaps and bump my door or my mirror, I just wave them on.

When a MaeJo university student rammed his m/c into my rear bumper at some red traffic lights, I picked him up and helped him on his way. No thoughts of harming him ever crossed my mind.

 

No harsh words from me, small bumps and knocks are part of everyday life in the big city.

 

 

Avoid Thai males like the plague.

Obviously, altercations are a serious NoNo 

 

The Thai just1ce system doesn't give a rat's a$$ for us.

Is shtf, and it seems you will be taken to the cleaners, head for the airport.

Thais would do it without hesitation 

Dont grow roots here.

And yet in other posts you blank everyone who tries to communicate with you. 

 

Still the reason (perceived or actual) as to why he went crazy is not described.

Complain to your lawyer, or maybe find a competent lawyer. 

Have you even got a lawyer? 

 

All you're doing is encouraging the Thai bashers, giving them ammunition with this moaning posting.

No its a terrible place. Wouldn't wish it on anyone 

You could file charges yourself, BUT, when you loss, you know he'd be suing you for defamation & win.

If he's important enough to pay off the court, he's probably important enough to pay someone to finish the job.

Not my place to rock the boat any more than it is already.

No, it is more likely that the paperwork never left the police desk as you where compensated for your hospital bills. 

I doubt he ever admitted to a murder attempt, have you seen the paperwork of him doing so? Not very likely as you don't want to use a lawyer.

Now you are making up things that he could get you killed. 

Instead of complaining on a forum, you should first use all the legal things available to you to get him convicted. The first part of that is get a good lawyer involved.

Still driving without a license? No sympathy for foreigners on motorbikes here that can't ride.

Did his wing mirror get damaged when you accidently  squeezed past him ?

No lawyer required as he signed a confession, it's up to the court to proceed.

Imagine what would happen to one of us foreigners if we ran down a Thai because 'we were angry'?

If they confessed, get a lawyer and sue them civilly. 

 

If your insurance paid your damages, get them involved as well.

Rubbish.

It's all to do with who has most influence, and the foreigner in question obviously doesn't have any.

If you are living here for a long time, you have to integrate and get influence or you'll be run over.

I wouldn't be surprised if the OP is illiterate so is easy meat.

You've openly admitted yourself on here with some degree of self-satisfaction to indulging in corrupt practices to claim annual pension increases from the UK which you were not entitled to. I thought you'd be right at home with the system here, until of course corruption doesn't work in your favour. Very hypocritical.

Which is why you end up making a thread about it and doing nothing else. 

 

Had this happened another way around. 

- Thai hits Thai

- Farang hits Farang

- Farang hits Thai

 

Nothing would be done, if insurance is covering the costs of medical treatment... Why ? becasue nothing is ever done that takes 'additonal' effort and medical costs are being covered, so its all ok then in the eyes of the BiB until someone 'makes' them think otherwise or forces them to 'do their job'....

 

Thus: IF BritMan wanted any further action (or anyone in a similar situation), they have to engage a lawyer to file civil proceedings and encourage the BiB to file criminal proceedings. 

 

Going him then writing about it on a forum is going to do nothing. 

 

And... NO.. your story is 'inflated'...  the 'university lecturer didn't try and kill you'....  But after you hit his car with bag he was angered and tried to retaliate by 'knocking you off your bike'....    You may want to call that attempted murder, but its closer to aggravated vehicular assault'...  

 

IF you wanted to, you can take this to court and file for further charges.

But, its seems you don't want to, you'll just complain on here. 

 

And no... You've attempted to turn this into a race thing, but I don't think it is. 

This guy didn't target you because you are a foreigner, he simply targeted the 'person' on the bike who he thinks scratched his car...
