beano2274 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 any tests done to see if the Lotus Driver had been drinking? Guess not!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ratcatcher Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I hope the 10 wheeler recovers from the rear end intrusion. Thankfully the trucker remained with his immovable object. I guess there's an Exigency for the Lotus to be in the repair shop for a little TLC. How much are these in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beano2274 Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 No problem, daddy will pay for the repairs I dont think so, what will happen is the Lotus driver will accuse the Truck Driver of something and since money talks the Lotus driver will win, the Truck Drivers company will then pay the insurance for the Lovely Malaysian Car.
