I think I totally stuffed myself!

JK-Trilly · June 11

So I went to a birthday party at my Thai girlfriend’s upcountry family home over the weekend. After we were there for a while, my GF asked me to move her car so that someone else could exit the compound with their car from the parking area at the front of the house. I already had a few drinks at that point and I accidentally plowed the back of her car right into her brother’s brand new Ducati sport motorcycle that was parked behind her car.

There is only a bit of damage to the back of her car, luckily only the bumper cover is a bit scuffed, but when I crashed into his motorcycle it got smashed up pretty badly against the wall on the other side. Thus, there is damage to two sides of his bike. From the car hitting it and then from when the motorcycle hit the wall. And then the bike fell over when I pulled the car forward a bit after the accident. The damage from the car to the bike wasn't so bad but the wall really smashed up the bike on the other side and the fall presumably added to the damage of the petrol tank on the side of the bike that I crashed into as there were a couple of large stones on the ground that the bike landed on top of when it fell over. It was so dark that I couldn't really see all the damage I caused until we got some flashlights after the accident.

Everyone in her family was really good about it, but I could see from the look in their eyes that they weren’t impressed at all with my little stunt. Now I’ve gotta get my GF’s car fixed, which isn't so bad, but the worst part is how to deal with the bike. It’s a lot of monetary damage and I don’t have the money right now to pay for all the imported Italian parts needed for the repair, however her brother obviously wants his expensive and new 998cc sport bike repaired ASAP, and I don't blame him fir how he feels.

This isn’t looking good for me. Probably a big loss of face in the eyes of her family that I won’t be able to recover from. My girlfriend says she isn’t angry, but she hasn’t acted her same warm way towards me since the accident. So I don’t know how things are going to go with her in the future. We haven't had any intimacy together since the tragic event.

At the moment though the biggest problem is how to pay for the damage to the car and motorcycle and make good on everything I did. I can now pay for the car repairs as I said, but I told them I would need a bit of time to transfer the money in for the bike repairs, although the truth is I don't have the cash readily available. I have a property overseas I could possibly sell, but my parents are living in the place right now and selling a property takes time anyway. Don't think I can qualify for a bank loan either at the moment. I’m not really sure what to do next.

call the insurance?

GF car has no insurance?

Brother's bike has no insurance?

JK-Trilly · June 11

The bike has no insurance yet I was told, don't know why. Her car has insurance, but since I'm not a licensed driver in Thailand they won't cover it.

So--- If you and your GF are sure she wasn't driving------------------ Get out the CC cards.

Learn how to drive would be a good idea.

Her fault. Give her no sex and no money if she keeps pouting.

Who rides Ducati and not having it properly insured? A village idiot, that's who.

Run away from loso village mentality in Thailand. It is very dangerous. Now is a good time to dump her,

Are you sure the bike wasn't in that state before you backed into it......could be a set up????

tubber · June 12

Ducati stopped production of the 998 in 2004 so the bike is at least 20 years old.

So, you mean it is the walls fault for being in the way. Just realize it. You made all the damage with your car, not anything else.!

Haven´t you read? There is not even enough money to pay for the repair. Nothing to give!

I think he is is in the wrong and the girlfriend should have insurance. However, driving into something drunk, will probably not be in the cover. 😉

What do u mean you are not licensed to drive in Thailand? Do you have a valid DL from your home country?

From experience the insurance companies don't care much about it. Also, I'm sure if your GF says SHE drove the car no one will inform the insurer it wasn't so as all want to get both car and bike fixed ASAP

Surely the insurance should cover this, having said that, you were pissed, so best to just find the funds...

If there is any insurance just say your GF was driving the car.

Thingamabob · June 12

Entirely your fault I'm afraid. I suspect the bike is quite old. You could check it's current value, and possibly offer compensation in installments over time.

Nobody needs to tell the insurance that it was you who drove the car ...

Get a loan and pay. Stupidity got it's price.🙏

You are an idiot for operating a motor vehicle here without proper licensing, but you seem like you know this already so I won't make you feel any worse.

Time to be honest and tell the bro you don't have the money and his only choice is to wait until you do. If he starts being threatening, it's time to look out for numero uno.

The Cebu Pacific flight to Manila departs at 4am daily.

You can alway send the money later to even the karma.

Obviously, time to dump the gf no matter what. Trash attitude.

Adding insurance fraud the popo could possibly charge him (and all involved) with later is probably not the wisest idea. As things stand now, it's just an accident with property damage.

As far as I know , in Thailand , the car is insured , no matter who drives it .

The procedure to follow is to call the insurance . They will send somebody to inspect the damage .

Better to leave it just as it happened . The guy will come and ask a few questions make some photos , and give permission to move the involved vehicles ...

They ( the insurance ) will tell about a garage they use for repairs . Normally , they do not want that you recommend a garage .

As it is the vehicle that is insured , you got plenty of room for navigating ...

Good luck .

License it not so important ... but it would make things easier if the driver was a thai , already for the language ...

Rhys · June 12

Sadly you broke it you need to fix it... be creative.

Sandboxer · June 12

From the way he wrote it, it sounds like the insurance company already knows who drove the car and subsequently denied coverage?!
