Need Advise

[astral]

You were very lucky.

1. Always have a valid Thai or International licence.

2. Have valid insurance - preferably Full comprehensive - class 1.

Then the insurace company will take over and manage the matter.

Mind you, they still need watching.

3. Take photos at the scene and write up your own account of what happened as soon as possible afterwards. Can refresh you memory if requested to testify month/years later.

4. In Thailand impounding of all vehicles involved is standard procedure, until the matter is resolved.

Dick,  Glad to hear you didnt get double zinged!

  How much did the repairs cost?

  What would have happened if a Thai was behind the wheel?

 

  Would the lady at fault be required to pay?

thanks

I presume you have insurance coverage now? If not have a chat with jack who's office is above Northern Thai real estate office on second Road by Marriott. he can sort you out a comprehensive policy on the spot, assuming of course you have a Thai driving licence.
