The lorry drive is to be commended, he waited for the police. The stupid idiot in the Lotus shouldn't be let out by himself. He broke booth legs, sorry I have don't feel for him. He drove like an idiot in a car he is not capable of handling.

[gandalf12]

Wauuu what a pittyful life you all have, alway see the glass half empty, alway negative, always at the dark side off life

why do you all spend all you time in thai forums complaining about everything thai?? if you really hate thailand this mush then go away, do something that makes your life happy again.

you are not even intelligent enough to complain about the wrongs you have to invent problems on something you do not know about, ohh father pays, ohhh insurance scam, ohh the young mans fault

in fact no one here knows the truth it might as seen many times before that the truck was parked-stopes in the middel off the road with out light, or maybe the truck was driving with out working rear lights.

we do not know, so crawl back in you hole and stay away from all thai and from thailand

love it or leave it, we all laugh at you pittyful lifes and no one here want you or will ever miss you.

enjoy life, be happy and you will be loved

I was the Lotus drivers fault. In Thailand you are never taught to drive within your safe stopping distance which will vary depending on the lighting and the road conditions. Further, the Lotus came from the back of the lorry. He should have seen the lorry in front and slowed down but probably driving far to fast and not really with adequate skills for the car he couldn't stop.

You run in to another vehicle from behind it is your fault. If he braked you should be far enough away to stop.

There are no reasonable excuses for the lotus driver

There is nothing in the report about how the accident happened yet you seem to have it all figured out. I think you should call the police and let them know all the details. Another case solved by a TV expert.

Evidently you are incapable of driving as well. Who was in front of who? The lorry was in front of the Lotus. The Louts was too close or driving too fast for the conditions. Even you can understand that.

Well said.

There are far too many miserable people on these forums who seems to be jealous of anyone with money.

None of us know where the young guy got the money for the car, perhaps his family started off poor and through hard work built a successful business.

We also don't know if the truck was well maintained with working read lights and clean reflectors.

I don't know where the miserable jealous contingent are from (I can guess), but in my world we admire people who have achieved financial success and can afford to have nice things.

I'm glad I was born into a well-off family. It must suck to be poor and even worse have no drive to become successful.

The truck reversed into him at 70kms per hour.

These trucks are so slow, I too could sometimes swear they are moving backwards at me on the road !!

Well then fellow posters. We have all been put in our place by the newbie who cannot spell, or use punctuation. Accept your slap on the wrist, and promise to only post nice comments in future.

I would have thought it was obvious that the "newbie" as you call him is Thai. As for your silly patronizing remarks about his spelling and punctuation, i wonder how your written Thai compares with his written English! When he says, 'no one here knows the truth' about this incident, he was of course absolutely correct. His remarks about all the bitter posters having pitiful lives was also right on the money.

I accept that my post was OTP. But this is a farang forum for farang to let off steam without resorting to guns and knives. I actually love my life here, but if anyone from any country tells me to crawl back in my hole, I take offence. And yes, his written English is a lot better than my written Thai.

It's interesting how tphut's 'troll' post has silenced many people. Normally a car crash by rich kid would be good for 100's of posts. If allowed to gamble I'd put some money on tphut and his connection with aforementioned Lotus driver(sarcasm)

It's true indeed that we don't know the full story but we never do and still we have an opinion because it's how we farangs are wired. Tphut also doesn't know how much we complain here or how much time we spend here but he says that he does. It's exactly the same when you analyse it.

We don't need to be apologetic towards tphut or anyone else for that matter. Farangmick is right. The forum is for people to let off steam, post their opinion, whatever that may be, as long as it is on topic and not insulting and a whole list of other rules. Certain sarcasm and humour is allowed. The forum management have done their utter best to ensure that (most) posts are within reason and not too crazy. I find TV to be very considerate and compassionate compared to other forums where they say whatever they like incl. swearing, insulting, etc.

If Thais don't like what we farangs write here you are free to leave the forum. It's like me going on a Thai forum in the UK or Ireland and complaining about Thais who complain about us Irish and Brits and trust me they do a lot of b-ching too and not only about the weather

I ride a bike and some of the Thai's I have seen make your hair curl. They think they are Evil Kanevil, pulling out without looking and riding in pairs along narrow roads. There are a lot of good riders I agree, mostly those in the cycle clubs but the rest are not up to safety standards.

The road mentioned is not heavy with traffic after midnight. Injured driver has probably just graduated from a big bike to a Lotus, and still habitually overtaking on the left...

It nearly happened me one night when I was speeding on my bike and a vehicle in front had no taillights

I was tired and my eyes were blurry, bad weather, these things can happen

But why is the truck not in the pic?

Why the (non-relevant) reference to where he got his degree?

Might be helpful to know which schools are turning out defective products.

[cgphuket]

Don't these little hiso brats realize how many people their daddy had to murder, rob and cheat to amass the fortune needed to but them these cars. Now all the servants will need to take a pay cut to pay the repairs, since junior will never actually work a day in his life.

Seems cruel but at least that nut will be off the roads for a while and it will be safer for more sober drivers.

Why does it have to be "in the picture"

[duckmandon]

So the reference to the University makes this a news story? Big deal another rich boy with a toy he can't use properly. A Dinky would suit him better & would probably match with his mental age. Just hope the broken legs keep him off the road for a long long time.

[SOTIRIOS]

.....as if 'a graduate' is supposed to signify anything other than status....

...pathetic...

[off road pat]

What has the name of that university to do with this accident? Is that a drivingschool? For 500 baht anybody can buy a driverslicense.

Yes correct it is around Thb 500 to get a DL when you pass the required tests

and the days of buying licences is long gone

No,...My wife passed her driving licence last year in Chiang Mai and was told she could buy it for 5000 thb....but she wanted to pass the test honestly....and save the 5G's....

Best regards.
