Russian driver crashes into Thai couple’s motorcycle, denies responsibility
A Thai couple is seeking justice after a Russian man allegedly crashed his SUV into their motorcycle on a Phuket road and failed to take responsibility for their injuries. The victims contacted the Phuket Times, urging it to publicise their story in their pursuit of justice. On Tuesday, November 19, the page shared photos of the accident along with details of the incident. In the caption, the page stated… “Call out! A Russian man sped out of an alley and crashed into the victims’ motorcycle. The foreigner refused to pay compensation and dared the victims to take the matter to court if they wanted the money.” The accident reportedly occurred at the entrance of Soi Bang Ma Lao in the Thalang district of Phuket at around 1pm on November 17. The couple was said to be en route to the woman’s workplace at the time of the collision. The Russian driver allegedly exited Soi Bang Ma Lao at high speed and collided with the motorcycle, which was travelling along the main road. Photos shared by Phuket Times show the Russian man approaching the victims after the crash. The woman is depicted with visible wounds and bruises on her arm, though the injuries sustained by her boyfriend were not disclosed. The couple explained that they were rushed to hospital and a local police officer arranged a meeting with the foreign driver the following day. However, they could not reach an agreement on compensation during the meeting, prompting the couple to plan legal action. Without legal knowledge and fearing they might not receive justice, the couple turned to social media to seek advice and expose what they described as the dangerous driving behaviour of the Russian man. They emphasised that they are now unable to work due to their injuries, leaving them without income. The story sparked criticism of the local police, as many netizens argued that the photos clearly showed the Russian driver’s fault and claimed that compensation should have been arranged without requiring court intervention. Others shared similar experiences of road accidents involving Russian nationals, alleging that police often favour foreign drivers. The couple has not disclosed which police station handled their case, and no updates on the matter have been provided so far.

Is Putin Truly Ready to Push the Nuclear Button? Washington calls Moscow's bluff
The vested interests of Blackrock and associates would much prefer avoiding nuclear contamination of the real estate they have so massively acquired via "support" for Zelensky. No less so than the multitude of countries Zelensky has indebted Ukraine with in agreements for the provision of weaponry that in the minds of naive observers is "aid" which implies "free". The boon to the combined global Arms Industry has been the clearance of mostly aged and obsolete munitions and equipment from many sources at (perhaps) less than cost. Ukrainians who were already relatively poor before the Russian invasion and annexation have departed by the millions into the surrounding territories and probably will never return from the advantages provided them as "war refugees" with a quality of living previously denied. That is for those who have escaped the decimation of remaining candidates as cannon fodder to support the "idealism" of NATO expansionism on behalf of half wits on both sides of the conflict. Global chaos is not imminent. It is underway. For the moment it remains a geopolitical game similar to chess but involving some physical jostling and dispute over the timer button a little more than in previous decades. There was a time when the Chess Board was a test measure of political resolve. Even then defectors versus loyalists were famous entities gaining political acclaim in defiance of None of the geopolitical issues that exist are simplistic as some consider can be resolved with such as a nuclear retaliation or a cowardly "preemptive " bs attack on a presumption. "Just effin nuke em " is the ultimate ignorant call to human elimination I have ever heard numerous times and near always from citizens of one country which is not Russian. -

Selling car
Or, still better, GET INFORMATION FIRST AT YOUR LOCAL DLT OFFICE (NOT ASEANNOW). I have always found that 'making an actual attempt' to process something be far more realistic. Equally so, I've found this forum (Aseannow) to be a far more reliable source than many official offices. Outcomes vary of course... When asking questions, officials in such offices tend to give any answer which may not be reliable, face prevents them from answering honestly that they don't know. The only person who knows unequivocally, is the person who will actually handle the transfer on that day. This was part of the learning curve early on in my time here - Asking what documents are required for xxxx... being told xxxx and xxxx... ... Then returning with said documents and finding out.. oh, you need xxxx too... ...Or xxxx is not required, no need for that (and obtaining said document was a real PITA). Thus, I've found that staffers in these places are not always sure, so they may list everything when asked, or may miss items. IF the Op has a buyer in Chiang Mai - it makes sense that he attempts to make the transfer at the DLT (if not already done so) - if extra documentation is needed, he'll have to go back anyway, but if not - then the transfer is completed. But, if he goes there with the sole purpose of just 'asking' then thats a minimum of a second trip. Also - IF the Op moves his car to Bangkok, there are other complications with re-registering it out of province. -

Visa Non-O & TM30
When doing your 90-day reports in-person, they may not have updated the system to reflect your current TM-30 location. The "online" system seems to be correlating data from these two separate systems / databases. When you go in-person to do your 90-day report, they may just process it, again, without touching the TM-30 data. You could ask them about the error-message, and maybe they will oblige to correct the problem (or not - mixed reports on this). -
