200 years ago unfortunately we had the Brit rejects forced upon us. We didnt ask for them. They just showed up.

 

Be reading the news lately it appears they now are being sent to Thailand. Thais didnt ask for them.

Welcome to the new post-swissgate Thailand, where shaming the farang on social media is your civic duty -- not that this guy doesn't deserve it. What a common thug.

 

One can only hope the worst foreign offenders clean up their act, but it is a disturbing trend.  

Most of us have been guilty of gesticulating or showing frustration when cut off or similarly endangered. I generally just give a thumbs up when something happens and I'm on the bicycle, but the finger used to be my go to,  back in the old country.   

 

 

Again, you believe her story. we don't see any part of that. It's amazing how they are always innocent and foreigners are wrong. I am not saying he is not thug and his behavior is atrocious, but we would probably be same or worse if someone hits us on the road. she and her partner safely locked in a car filming

You are an indigenous Aussie, I don't think so, your ancestors were probably as English as me.........😱.......Bashing your own here for quite a while........😂

This guy is nothing but an out of control thug. And he has form. The behaviour shown and the look on his face is of someone who is psychotic. This is disgusting brutal behaviour from someone who is a guest in the country. All this violence and drama because of a slight incident while driving. Grow up and get over it. What a total dick. This rubbish reflects badly on all of us.

How does it reflect badly on you? Have you been prone to similar antics?

[Cabradelmar]

I saw the video on ThaiRath32 four days ago... I was certain he was from California (with all the bling and a skateboard cargo netted to the tail of his big bore motorcycle)... Clearly a man with self control and anger management issues. Probably should be investigated if he has been menacing other aThais. But from this one incident alone, all he is really guilty of is attacking a car (lucky for the driver the doors were locked, because he has hot under the collar)... and I don't think that alone is deportation worthy. Although, his ilk don't make Thailand a better place. Hope he does get the boot.

I think he perhaps means 'it reflects badly on (us) all those foreigners who look like pikey-quim-jippo begpackers'....

He obviously quickly removed his crash helmet and put on the baseball cap and headphones.

 

I'm sure he wasn't riding through busy traffic whilst part of his sensory conception is blanked out by music. 😉

Meaning the behaviour tends to sway people's views on farangs in general. It is not a stretch to understand the views held by some reinforced by this behaviour gives a biased outlook where some will judge negatively based on incidents such as this. As you have so competently displayed

we all know the thai woman hit him, probably distracted play facebook whilst driving and the aussie reacted accordingly.

 

she then quickly whipped her phone out in a pathetic attempt to save face.

Thais are not the best drivers even if they did take the pìɗɗly driving test around cones in their amphu so driving like GTA5 is the norm here

Indeed... and this is the result of a reactive and apathetic police force, rather than a proactive police force.

 

They [Police] do nothing about these issues when reported... why ?... no one was hurt, so no laws were broken (or thats the mentality). 

 

Its only when this guy (and / or those like him) actually attack, maim, kill someone that they will then react... 

 

We may even get lucky with an announcement that there will be a 'crack down on carrying around lethal weapons in our vehicles'....

 

 

 

Of course to anyone with a brain we're seeing tools such as this guy (in your Photo) resorting to their threats with Machete's all the time... 

But a 'crack down' is only worth announcing in response to some 'netizen outrage'... so something needs to happen first. 

 

 

I wonder what would happen if one of these violent tools took to threatening a foreigner, so he protects himself by driving over the aggressive tool...     ??....   (perhaps this is one for the Brits to get involved with next as we've fallen out of favor with the 'farang bashing' recently) !!!... 

 

 

There are 'traffic situations' where I can see the other guy getting so irate that I wonder when they're going to start threatening me... 

Sometimes its unavoidable and we're 'locked in' a traffic sitation...  they get irate and drive erratically because they taken offence at something...  What if we can't move, family in car and they come at us with a Machete....  we can't get out of there ?

Keyboard warrior me in tells me... just drive over the £u$%er !!!

In a civilized society, you call the police to sort fender benders out. And insurance pays out damages.

If everyone starts taking matters into their own hands, it's chaos.

Road rage comes to Thailand, farang style, how disrespectful, can't beep your horn, now throwing a book and kicking the car, well....LoL.

 

Your description is bang on.

Did you watch any of the video at all ??

 

Did you see the Aussie motorcyclist driving erratically, then suddenly braking and swerving in-front of the woman leaving her nowhere to go but to hit him ???....    it almost as if he was so angry he wanted to make her crash into him ?

His riding is erratic and dangerous.

 

The only question I have is what happened before start of the video we see...  what happened in the lead up ?

Did she cut him off ? nudge him (drive into him accidentally) then ignore him etc ???

 

Something made this Aussie very angry, I'm not condoning his actions, but we only see the 'later stages of the video' and he's clearly furious....    She either did something to make him that furious, or he's a completely unhinged nutcase. 

 

Why have we not seen the video from 'earlier' on / the lead up ????

 

Not condoning the violent thugs actions at all - but I'd like to see some balance here and see what happened earlier on.

Obviously not marijuana.... 

 

 

Of course, it could be a birth defect....   

.... P!$$ed off since birth at having Australian nationality....  understandable degree of self-loathing really.

 

 

 

_{(for those of thin skin fat trigger finger persuasion - this is just jest -  its not a Brit, so I'm taking the opportunity to take the mature and moral high ground and retaliate !!!... for the record, I think Aussies are great where would we be without Australia - we wouldn't have TimTams or Vegemite !!!)...}

It seems the video is from a camera which is installed in the car.

 

They conveniently cut out the part where she rear ended him, how you otherwise explain it is laying down in front of the car, and the license plate came off?

You obviously didn't see the other video (or you conveniently missed it out) where he overtook her, swerved in front and slammed on the brakes from maybe 2-3 metres in front of her car. A car takes a lot longer to stop than a motorbike, no one could have avoided hitting him.  Shame it wasn't harder.
