Suffinator Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 So even the so-called 'educated' Thais are delusional in thinking an amulet will save you. Oh dear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimamey Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 The amulet ? Nothing to do with modern advanced car design and crash structures then? My thoughts exactly. I imagine that the carbon fibre cockpit, high grade steel and tungsten, crumple points and other Kinetic Energy absorption features contributed to his survival much much more than a piece of clay with diamonds stuffed in it. Come to think of it, a lot of these rescue drivers that pick up the bodies at RTA's seem to wear lots of different amulets. I reckon had this guy died in the accident there would be a rescue driver right now adorned with a rather flashy Great Garuda! If he was wearing a seatbelt it would be more appropriate to show how that helps. It would be interesting to compare the death rates of those who wear amulets and those who don't. I've never seen one in the UK although I'm sure there are a few and look how lower the death rate is. The same could be said for many western countries.

Richard Hall Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 "He said he was wearing Great Garuda amulet, surrounded by tiny diamonds,at the time of the accident, which he believed contributed to his miraculous survival." How about trading in one of those tiny diamonds for a set of rain tires so next time the Lambo survives as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post laobali Posted May 31, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted May 31, 2013 he was driving from Bangkok to attend his father′s funeral at a temple in Chonburi, Shame his dad isn't around to tell his son to slow the Xxxx down. Not to be glib, but I wonder if the first thing he did when his father passed away was to buy a Lamborghini. Either they are keeping the body for a long time or ordering and shipping is a lot quicker than I thought. There are Lambos on sale in Bangkok right now. In fact there are two up country where I live in a showroom Don't you feel exposed living in a showroom? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

technologybytes Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I don't get it. Was it his bad luck (crashing into lampposts is bad luck if you ask me) that he attributed to the amulet? Or the good luck that so far he has not been charged with dangerous driving? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnlandy Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 before to buy such car I would advise to LEARN how to drive ..not to mention he was probably not driving low speed. I dont understand those people here , get a brain and then a proper driving license. A managing director who believe in his amulets ..... I thought I have red everything . "A brain" you gotta be joking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
culicine Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 The CEO would have been better of taking driving lessons than buying an amulet.. it looks like he managed to crash on a straight road...skill Sent from my i-mobile i-STYLE Q6 Or a cheapskate who wouldn't replace his wide tires when they are down to the wires. Not too good in the rain:) Probably his a water patch and hydroplaned at high speed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misterwhisper Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) I truly hope there is a clause in his car insurance policy that reads: "In case of divine intervention the undersigned insurer shall not be held responsible for any damage claims." That would teach the idiot a lesson - but of course only unless he also wears an amulet that protects against insurers trying to avoid responsibilities.

navara Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I used to be a real sportscar owner. Thailand is NOT the country for such cars. The chance you'll die in such a race monster is 10x higher than in Western countries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pb1936 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Very stupid cars, for small minded playboys. Entirely unsuitable for Thai driving conditions, and lethal in the hands of unskilled drivers. It's very lucky that other road users were not killed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robby nz Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Just out of morbid curiosity I went and had a go at looking up 'Asian Steel Bar Company' the company he said he worked for. No can find any company by that name on the web, could of course be something lost in the translation or they don't have a site. As Ratcatcher said it could have been steal. Something like the Steal beer Bar Company 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullstop Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 (edited) A CEO who crashed his 34 million-baht Lamborghini into several electric poles and survived without serious injury credited his luck to the amulet he was wearing.Which proves even idiots can make money, drive recklessly, have accidents and survive ...

Kananga Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Lamborghini Aventador price in USA and UK - 11,000,000 baht Lamborghini Aventador price in Thailand - 34,000,000 baht. Shame the amulet doesnt protect the brain from being ripped off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emdog Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Hmmmm think he was speeding as he "hitting into 2 electric poles and 2 trees"? I know in my state even if you are not speeding, if you are driving too fast for the conditions, you will be ticketed. I am sure he can afford the fine... Since his amulet saved him, he most assuredly won't consider taking driving lessons or using sense (uncommon here) as in observing speed limits and conditions.
