Crime Brazen Taxi Theft in Samut Prakan: Woman Steals Cab at Petrol Station
I do not quite follow this rationale: why would the driver get out of the car and leave it running, so she can buy something? -

Leaving food out
There are mostly two factors at work here. 1/ Most importantly, the level of harmful bacteria depends on a number of factors. Most importantly, does the food get contaminated at all? Secondly, how large is the bacteria colony? Just a million or two, or billions? Also, when, i.e. right after it's placed outside? Worst case scenario, a few dozen flies contaminate the food with a huge colony of bacteria, right after the food is placed outside. In that case, the levels of bacteria after 8 or 16 hours may pose significant risk. I've seen a cooked piece of chicken left outside crawling with larvae after mere 8 hours. OTOH, it is indeed common to leave cooked food outside, and 99% of the time people eating it are just fine. 2/ Immunity. A person who often ingests bacteria with improperly stored food may develop a level of immunity, and a moderate amount of bacteria may not cause any symptoms, or very light ones. But Thais do get sick from the food, they just don't make the connection. Thai street food is rarely undercooked, mostly overcooked, and all of the bacteria is dead. As long as it served while fresh, that is not the issue. It is "unhealthy" mostly because of the burned oil that's been reused for a week. And of course a possibility of contamination by the vendor who may not have access to clean water to wash their hands properly.
