German tourist jumps on hit-and-run car in Krabi

[Thaivisa News]

Krabi:- A German tourist jumped on a car driven by 19-year-old Thai who tried to flee after bumping into the rear of the tourist’s car. The Thai teenager ended up hitting three more vehicles and seven motorcycles before he was arrested.

Pol Lt Col Chartchai Nakpaksi, an investigative inspector of Muang Krabi police station, said the failed hit-and-run attempt happened on the Ao Nang Road in Moo 2 village in Tambon Ao Nang in Krabi at noon on Tuesday.

The tourist, Vitalii Slobodchikov, 37, suffered a slight injury on his right leg and left arm. The Thai teenager, Kiartiyos Pramualkarn was arrested after his escape effort ended when his Mitsubishi Pajero rammed into a Honda sedan car parked on the road, prompting it to be unable to move further.

Kiartiyos himself suffered a minor injury on his leg. He was arrested by a policeman stationed at the Ao Nang Bay’s police booth.

Slobodchikov told police that Kiartiyos’s Pajero slammed into the rear of his Hyundai car but the teenager would not stop. Instead, he pulled back and tried to flee the scene.

The German tourist said he ran after the Pajero and it would not stop so he jumped on its roof held on to the roof’s two bars for luggage load.

Slobodchikov said the Thai teenager swerved his vehicle left and right, trying to shake him off the vehicle. Doing so, Kiartiyos’s Pajero hit two pick-up trucks and seven motorcycles along the way before it hit the Honda car and its engine went off.

The teenager was charged with reckless driving causing injuries and damages.

That German with the very Russian name could easily have died. The local 19-year-old should be looking at a prison sentence but his headman will speak for him and he will be released with a small fine.

Sounds like something out of a Diehard movie.

Kudos to the brave, and some might say foolhardy, German tourist. The little shit that stole the Pajero will have his day in court and a B500 fine or some such amount.

Do you remember that time in the distant past when there was a happy land called East Germany and it was behind the iron Curtain?

Well, that is probably where the little Vitalii, the German with the very Russian sounding name originated. I expect his parents with the same very Russian name had moved or been stationed there during Soviet days.

There are actually English people in England with very Indian and Arabic sounding names. I believe it's called immigration.

[Briggsy]

You seem rather angry today, ratcatcher.

Did you get out of bed the wrong side this morning?

Yes, actually I did, sorry mate.

Anyone not of English, Scottish or Welsh descent is classed as British by the government. It's an inclusive catch all so people don't feel excluded, hence there are British Pakistanis, British Indians, British Iraqis, Hong Kong British, etc., etc.,. Yes, I know we're all actually descended from immigrants at some time in history, but more recent immigrants and their descendents receive the British tag. Calling everyone Earthling would simplify things.

Zero.

It was stolen? Where did you get that from?

Vitalii Slobodchikov,

A typical German name these days. How will Thais pronounce his name? Wee ta lee Slo bod tchi cough?

[HyperRai]

I think the German is wrong. If he not jump on Khun Kiartiyos car he would not hit others.

[The manic]

What a mad ba***d!

[Lupatria]

Do you work for a Thai car insurance company?

[lust]

Could you imagine seeing this? You some foreigner hanging onto the roof of an suv smashing cars. Lmao i hope cctv caught it.

[Deli]

This teen prick unfortunately won't get what he deserves, Papa who paid for the SUV car will take care.

[NeilSA1]

There are some marvelous stories today.

Well done the German tourist

[SOTIRIOS]

...he should be charged with attempted murder as well....

...did he expect the victim to survive when he started swerving the vehicle, trying to make him fall off...???

[96tehtarp]

I would not have jumped on to that vehicle. No way.

[ratcatcher]

I have been rightly accused by Sviss Geez of stating that the Pajero was stolen for which I duly apologize.

However can you prove the teen's father paid for the Pajero and that his son is a "prick"?

[trianglechoke]

awesome stuff............... only in thailand.......... and probably cambodia too

[onionluke]

That cool German bloke is lucky the dangerous driver didn't shoot him . Through the roof multiple shots .

[culicine]

A 19 y.o with a PJS? I think we can all see how this will end, with justice not being served. Paying for all damages and a nice long stint of community service wouldn't go astray.

[ToddinChonburi]

Yes , sounds like attempted murder.

[transam]

10 out of 10 to the German..................... ...............Go for it..................

Vitalii Slobodchikov is a brother of the famous software protection solution developer, the brothers have immigrated to Germany long time ago, they live in Berlin.
