fatdrunkandstupid Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Did he put a shirt on before the BIB dragged him off. What insurer do you have. I am with AXA but have not yet had to ring them (fingers crossed). Did you call your insurer and they came out to deal with the cops and Putin's love child... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He rode of on a bike and was brought back by another ruskie, the exact same ruskie that just compensated me for my time and loss - i liked that one, Im with Viriyah, First class i think it is called, car is already in garage having repairs. (expected 2/3 Months), so my truck is being driven up from Trang (need to relearn manual ) Insurer was fab young thai - english lad, worked wonders, but there was four insurers involved as my car flew in to the one in front (we were stopped) and that flew into a pickup .

muratremix Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 They think Thailand is a state of Russian federation and they can drive day & night drunk? Watch some russian car fail videos and you'll understand my point. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KKr Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Normal russian behavior. DUI not really a crime in russia. Bye Bye! Wat Dee, Russian Alcohol blood level limit was 0,048. A very happy policeman informed me about this at a routine paper check in the morning when he measured 0.096 Punishable by jail, fine, six months suspension. Happy morning that was. Europe's limit is 0.5 !!! The guy shrugged his shoulders and told me that I was 2 times over limit. DUI not a good idea anywhere but surely not in Russia ! What tourists do abroad is another thing though,,,, Russians, English, Scandinavians etc, it seems every country has its own incoming tourists to be proud of!

DonaldBattles Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 More and more Russians are coming. Next year you will also be flooded with Chinese like Chiang Mai is.

breaker Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Actually, driving under influence is prohibited in Russia! It will cause a driving ban for 2 years (for first time) and for 3 years (for second and next time DUI). Also, if somebody will die, prison from 1 to 7 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StasD Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 They think Thailand is a state of Russian federation and they can drive day & night drunk? Watch some russian car fail videos and you'll understand my point. i think there is a lot of farangs who drive drunk or ill. As I remember, old German man killed a woman in accident 1 dead, 14 injured, German arrested, following Jomtien Beach Road Crash http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/680465-one-dead-14-injured-german-arrested-following-jomtien-beach-road-crash/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhythmworx Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 One thing I would like to know is how an airbag pounding into your face feels. I have heard (just speculation) that they can sometimes cause more harm than good. Please tell me your experience of that bag slamming into your face. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the choice between an airbag 'slamming into your face' and your face bursting through a laminated glass windscreen which would you choose? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
