So sad. There should be some severe penalty for that kind of driver – even something like Bangkok Hilton could jump to my mind.

prison would be one option,  as indeed would a fine, or they could revoke his licence,    there aren't any other options really

I am thinking voluntary or involuntary manslaughter depending on the prosecutor in the USA. I add the note of observation, again in western countries. The crime is prosecuted as a crime against “the people” (the citizens of the country). Civil case … those offended file charges, criminal code offenses are against the society writ large.

The family of the deceased patient was informed of the circumstances but they chose not to take legal action against the driver.

Case closed.
Next case ....

In the US many states consider this murder or manslaughter at the very least and you will be tied as either or.

In which US states would this be charged as murder or manslaughter?

I would recommend mandatory drivers license retesting and training.

 

Or scared straight with mandatory visit to mortuary and education by doctor on how important it is to get medical treatment as soon as possible for certain conditions.

Regardless if the family refused to file charges, the cops should arrest him for manslaughter.

 

And if the one-minute delay caused by the car driver was inconsequential to the outcome?

Yes, perhaps they knew that the driver's action made no contribution to the death of that patient.

In a proper civilized country where responsible citizens understand the vehicle is in an emergency they automatically move out of the way.  

 

but in an irresponsible society with no common sense it's different  :vampire:

In a civilised country they may also have deployed a paramedic on a high powered motorbike to attend the scene and provide initial care.  Unfortunately this is Thailand where even the emergency lane on the highway is considered an overtaking lane and it's use is actively encouraged by the boys in brown waving their batons when traffic is heavy.  Numerous times I've witnessed ambulances being blocked in this way on the freeways around Bangkok and Samut Prakan, yet to see any ambulances drivers complain.

What are fender guards?

Metal cage type guards to protect the vehicles body when ramming selfish Thai male  drivers (who were brought up to think they are the king of all kings) out the way of emergency vehicles on a an emergency call.

That's a mistake.  Stupid should hurt.

hopefully one day this will happen to one of his dearly beloved family members so he will understand what he did.

 

thailand needed to make a new law that ambulances give priority and even give the right to hit the cars who not wanna let them pass
