Would you hold a person on a bright sunny morning traffic with many pedestrians, captive in an open vehicle? If so do not ask me to join your gang to kidnap or hold captive someone. 🙄

With the amount of amateur quality foreign initiated crime lately.... all the balaclava safe crackers, the Amirs of this world, nothing would surprise me..........

Try reading the original article, he was travelling in a pickup, a black Toyota Hilux Revo pickup truck, there is absolutely nothing about he was in a baht bus!

Yes your are right. I should thoroughly read all articles, I still need to state, as he was in the rear of the pick up and jumped, which would have been in a direction away from the vehicle then his head being run over would be near impossible. If it was the rear of the Toyota Hi-lux pickup where he jumped from then that would only indicate the driver reversed back over his head.

The article as always is based on the full information contained in the Thai media, issued by police and witnesses statements. Those statements are covered in the article.

“Those witnesses stated that the man struck the road heavily before the pickup’s rear wheel ran over his head, leaving him critically injured.

According to witnesses, the driver failed to stop after the man fell from the vehicle. Instead, the pickup truck accelerated away from the area immediately following the incident.”

Your fantasy that the vehicle reversed over the victim is based on nothing but your imagination.

Maybe he thought he could skip out on the fare? Looks to be a real young guy, "I'm going to skip out on this 100thb fare, watch this!". All boozed up, not real bright, here we go-fundme.....

In Phuket a couple weeks back was a guy attempting a back flip out of a tuk-tuk, the momentum of the moving vehicle had him smashing his face right on the pavement.
