Just1Voice Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Coming from a bar and may have been drinking. The Brilliance of some of their statements just dazzles me at times. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuddy Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 He could have been made to have an accident! Well yeah I don't know that. Yep so you go to a bar to talk to the the ladies, remain sober,have an altercation about the price of the tea or something, then on ya way home you have an accident. Case closed. Everyone wins. For once the cops are saying he "may" have been drinking. I wonder why that is? Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RigPig Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I wonder if he had a bike license and if not who is responsible for renting him the bike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timebandit Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I rented a bike on Beach road next to the Police station some years ago before I had a Thai license. I had a USA, Florida license and the tout accepted it--- NO PROBLEM. The motorcycle had an empty gas tank so I put a gallon or so of gas in the tank for a pleasant sober few hours ride in the country. 30 seconds after buying gas I was waved over and threatened with ticket wearing the wrong color helmet for that day or noise or something. A 500 baht donation to the police orphans fund returned me to the motorcycle tout. "Give me my money back" oh no! So I ride down to walking street and circle down 2nd to return after a short stop.Tout happy with day's rental plus nearly full gas tank and his police neighbor happy with 500 Baht. Next victim not happy with a liter of coke in the gas tank. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JacChang Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 I think they made it up. They need news to have readers to pay for it. I need a bloody Russian on the payment sleeping with someone pointing at him. Or it didn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulic Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Contrary to popular belief most drunk drivers get home safe and sound, incident free. Especially those with practise as I am sure this guy did have. Maybe another vehicle was involved, maybe it was his unfamiliarity with the road. Not condoning driving while impaired, just saying. We have all/most done it in the past. Now it has become socially unacceptable in most countries and we have accepted that one should not, we do not. I do not judge, but wish he could have learnt from his mistake rather than pay the ultimate price. He was not driving a truck, bus, car. He will be missed by family and friends.

Regards Reggae bars don't have 'ladies' Or the mongers they attract which is why I favoured them when first here after having had a gutfull of 'boomboomboom I want you in my room' busting out of a tinny soundsystem midst a load of corpulent drunken old guys who all had 'portraits in the attic' Nowadays, not so much. They've all become over commercialised rip off joints, much like the rest of the island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
