Thaivisa News Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Bangkok – If you are foul-mouthed while drunk, avoid taking the bus, according to the apparent merit of this story. Or, it can be argued, if you are short-tempered, don't drive the bus. Lieutenant Noppakao Tiyaphak of Bang Sue police station yesterday’s evening went to investigate a brawl between the driver of Bus No 39 and a drunken passenger. When Noppakao arrived at the scene on Phaholyothin Road near BTS Aree Station, driver Chaiya Waiwithee, 39, had already fled and passenger Theeraphol Ketthan, 59, was rushed to the hospital. Passengers on the bus said Chaiya and Theeraphol had a heated argument as one was driving and another was sitting at the back of the bus. Theeraphol was intoxicated and Chaiya appeared to have lost his temper. After the bus got to the bus stop and parked, Chaiya got up and walked to Theerapol’s seat. He then kicked the passenger at the side of the head between ear and the temple. Theeraphol lost consciousness. The ticket collector and some passengers helped to bring him to the hospital. Chaiya walked away from the scene. Noppakao called the hospital and was told that Theeraphol had regained consciousness although he was still drunk and not in the position to give statement. The policeman also got in touch with the operator of bus license in order to track down Chaiya. In another news, motorist Pheerawas Sangkachornnan, 30, filed a police complaint, his car was broken into while he parked it at the roadside to have a shut-eye on Ramintra Road last night. Pheerawas said he went to sleep in the car around 3.00 am. When he woke up a few hours later, he found that the car’s back window was broken and that valuables, including a gold necklace and IPhone 6, were stolen. He said he chose to park his car in front of the Army’s Sports Centre hoping it was a safe area. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post ratcatcher Posted April 7, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 7, 2015 "......he found that the car’s back window was broken and that valuables, including a gold necklace and IPhone 6, were stolen." I'm sure we all sympathize with people that leave gold chains and valuable mobile phones lying on display in their cars. I hope the man has since sobered up and hasn't got a hope in hell of making an insurance claim. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably file it in the same place as "the ghost stopped the burglar taking everything except 50,000 baht of jewellery" claim. I believe the file is called "Yeah, right".

samuibeachcomber Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Moral of the story is dont get drunk and abusive,or sober and abusive.Most stories on TV about tourists and expats here who get into trouble with thais is because they are abusive towards them.And in this case thais too.

Popular Post bendejo Posted April 7, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 7, 2015 > He then kicked the passenger at the side of the head between ear and the temple. But there's no space between the ear and the temple, so how could.... oh wait, now I get it. So what side of the street was the temple on? > Pheerawas said he went to sleep in the car around 3.00 am. When he woke up a few hours later, he found that the car’s back window was broken and that valuables, including a gold necklace and IPhone 6, were stolen. Sounds like an insurance attempt, probably dumbest set-up I've ever heard, worthy of an award.

lvr181 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 The driver ran away...? What's new? Same old same old...flee before you get into trouble Hope the Police charge him with fleeing/leaving the scene of a crime (among other charges). About time these irresponsible drivers are brought to account. Enough of the "mai pen rai" attitude. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookee68 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Drink driving and fools and Thailand go together like strawberry and cream, who breaks your window of your car while you are in there asleep, I think the driver must have dreamed that he had those items stolen, and then you got a bus driver who stopped and parked up, and then hit the drunken man, and does what they all do in Thailand, they run away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
