GreenSnapper Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 This fully grown man claims that he was sober. To be honest, he may be better off claiming that he was drunk, at least then there would be an explanation for this totally irresponsible behaviour. Even better: claim he is Thai. That explains everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt1591 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 (edited) The Daily News, and a couple other sources, are reporting a "64 mg percent" blood alcohol. In the States, a .08 BAC will constitute "drunk driving". Not sure if the Thai standard equates to .064 BAC, or when they finally got around to administering the test. But, it definitely flies in the face of "My client wasn't drinking"! Same lawyer said: his client had not been drinking before the accident, but instead imbibed alcohol after he hit the policeman with his car. Before or after the test results? Maybe they were rubber beers, forced upon his client by mysterious dark figures. That angle seems to work!

Woodsie888 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 As softgrorge said, every case is different. The physical evidence at scene will give you a very educated guess at minimum speeds of contact. Collision reconstructionists use mathematical formulae based on physics. They will interpret skid marks and gouges in the roadway to determine a point of impact etc. Based on these physical indicators of objects, bodies, etc, they can make a determination. If there is not positive point of impact, a gouge in the road where the vehicles made contact caused by downward motion of the two objects, a positive determination of a true speed will be in doubt. Collision reconstructionists can only interpret the evidence they see. Now, a forensic engineer can do a "crush analysis" on the vehicles, and based on the crumple zones and weights of the vehicles/bodies, they will be able to make a better determination of speed. There is no doubt that the father will hire the best lawyers, and best forensic engineers in the world. Casting any doubt in the court's mind will likely result in an acquittal. Commen sense law shows negligence on the part of the Ferrari driver. Hopefully he will serve some time over that. In any event, he will have to live with his own knowledge of the fact he wiped out someone who was sworn to protect his country. (I realize the flames will be thrown out at this statement, as so many believe that every police officer is corrupt in Thailand, however that comes down to assumptions......) He will also be known to everyone as the "guy who killed a cop and his money saved his butt". Rest in Peace Pol Snr Sgt-Major Wichean Klinprasert. No forensic engineer required. The SRS ECU will give details of what time, speed of vehicle at impact, ABS activation and a raft of other information at the exact time the Airbags and seat belt tensioners were deployed. Other ECU's onboard will have data regarding all other mechanical parameters at that time. It's not rocket science, only a matter of whether the powers that be wish to know the truth. We probably all know the answer to that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

straedearts Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 A tragedy..... RIP...... Hope he gets what he deserves...... Very sad indeed. Sadly money talks in every country.... The facts are a idiot drove too fast and killed someone, no skid marks! And hit and run! Doesnt matter what speed... its a sad display of weathly foolishness and human disrespect! You can only hope he finds a room mate called BUBBA. Seems it was the perfect CAR JAM..... What are the chances....... SAd sad sad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocN Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Here is another wish, I have: after hearing what sad excuses he and his lawyer had to make ...and the tried but failed cover- up...if he would show up at the funeral, I would ask him to leave NOW, not even permitting him to enter the funeral-site. That would make a nice photo-OP. And if he he really comes up with a check, rip it to shreds in front of his eyes or send it back after pooping on it! This guy feels no remorse at all, I bet! Otherwise, he would have been on his knees, begging the family for forgiveness. But a cop is wat too far below him, to feel real guilt and shame. If I were the family of the cop, I would make him feel ashamed, before the eyes of the whole country and not touch his blood money until he shows some real sign of remorse! ...I have to stop the drugs, I guess!

Well from the very start, if the police are trumpeting it was a 200kph accident and it turns out to be 60, it hardly puts the police's case in a very good light. By the end of it, it will be the fact that the copper pulled out in front of him and it was an unavoidable accident. I am very curious why he has confessed, unless there are witness reports that the guy was speeding very fast down the road. The whole 200kph statement when looking at the damage on the car sounds completely outlandish, but that said, eye witness accounts will confirm better than any analysis that the BIB can do in one day on the back of a fag pack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On it's own it is not sufficient to convict. I am not sure how the court system there would accept it.
