BANGKOK: -- Passengers on bus No. 59 last night must have been confused.

Police are still looking for a man who stole bus No. 59 from Rangsit bus terminal, drove the bus to pick up some passengers before he crashed it into another public bus and escaped. Nice.

Korakrit Sriyod, 35, driver of bus No. 126, who waited for police at Kaset Intersection, said bus No. 59, which was loaded with passengers, was speeding and ended up colliding with his vehicle around 9pm yesterday. No one was injured.

When the man stepped out of the bus, Korakit asked for his documents, but he said he didn’t have any and he seemed drunk.

Hope he remembered to collect fares from passengers.

At least he had the good sense to steal an air conditioned bus for his personal comfort.

Seen this before but last time was a lady

and passengers never flinched until the lady spied the bus drivers,

uniform hat and decided to steer the bus with her knees like this guy,

she also crashed,

sanitised people everywhere who can not think, locked in their own space ,

sitting in the seat makes you a bus driver, seemed drunk , walked away,

pathetic

It's simply impossible to resist the urge to drive a bus, as many of us know. Especially after we've had a few drinks.

[SOTIRIOS]

...not to say that he wasn't in fact the actual bus driver.....???

[harrycallahan]

After he fled the accident the passengers were still none the wiser.

The bus he stlole was not air conditioned, the uniform he was wearing was one from an air conditioned bus company

[Sooo Upto Me]

" He seemed drunk ' Well that sounds bout right then no cause for alarm there. ?

[trogers]

No ignition keys required to free the steering wheel and start the engine?

The legitimate bus driver then reportedly asked his superiors to give the bus thief an award for "Employee of the Year" as he was " The most professional and conscientious Bangkok bus driver I've ever come across bar none"

Yep - been there, done that. Group of friends at high school, few beers, double decker bus parked up with keys in it ...... irresistible!

He is actually pointing at the bus.

I'm sorry but that is comedy gold.

I'm sorry but that is comedy gold.

That is because he is not at fault and mommy says he is perfect.

It'd never happen in Blakey's depot.

Why don't you read the report before posting and making yourself look like an idiot.

[Oziex1]

It'd never happen in Blakey's depot.

"That's made my day that has"

As Blakey would have said.

[Happy Grumpy]

He's been hired to drive the 107 tomorrow.

[cyberfarang]

What a retard!!.....................in a retarded country.

That`s rich coming from a retarded poster.

[Reigntax]

He has now set up a company, Thai X tours with the slogan, get more bang from your bus.

[SantiSuk]

Wanabe bus driver. How sad most kids in the west aim a bit higher - aeroplane or at the very least a railway train ☺
