On questioning of the Thai Mr. Phornthep Soraya (35) from Phayoa stated that he was riding his white-black Honda Wave motorbike along 3rd Road towards South Pattaya, when a Toyota Fortuner driven by a foreigner who appeared to be seriously intoxicated, swerved suddenly catching his motorbikes’ right mirror, causing him to lose control and almost colliding with a taxi car driving along side.

Sounds like he is a very upstanding individual from down under.

I hope he receives the maximum penalty for his actions.

why is there a yellow plate on the front of his car? I thought they were for public transport vehicles?

I noticed that too, I was wondering if due to the reflective paint on the plate and the camera flash, that it came out looking yellow instead of red.

..play the video clip and you will see it is red (new vehicle awaiting registration..another offence ie driving it after dusk)..hmm gets worse and worse..from a simple case of clipping his mirror..due to his state of intoxication he probably didn't realise he clipped him..now a major incident seeing as he didn't stop.
