rooster59 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Diving instructor charged with reckless driving Winai Sarot The instructor attempted to cut off Mr Jeerapong. Photo: Gazette file PHUKET: Police filed charges against a driving instructor after his reckless driving was caught on camera yesterday. A viral video on Facebook titled 'Please help. Am I in the wrong?' shows the driver of a Honda Accord attempting to turn right from the left-hand turning lane at the intersection of Chao Fa West and Thep Anusorn Road in Wichit, near the Shell gas station (video here). The dash-camera video appears to show the instructor, named by police as Tor Por, cutting off the driver, pulling over and threatening him. Mr Tor appears to be turning right from the left-turning lane, despite the fact that there were two right turning lanes. The dash-cam driver, named on Facebook as Jeerapong Yanasan, initially did not allow Mr Tor to cut him off.

Pimay1 Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 After both vehicles stop, Mr Tor exits his vehicle and yells at Mr Jeerapong, “Do you know who I am?” I like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangkorndang Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Shocked, shocked to my core. About the driving incident ?

So I wonder what he was doing on the road in the first place. I think the guy is a diving instructor, so there really is no fun at all in the article.

TerrylSky Posted October 8, 2016 Share Posted October 8, 2016 So finally somebody gets hammered for reckless driving in this country. It would be more appropriate for him to get busted for reckless diving if warranted me thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, shocked or not, now you know those who teach others how to drive cannot drive themselves. Talk about the blind leading the blind. I wonder what qualifies him to be a "driving instructor"?
