worgeordie Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 (edited) He must have thought he left the handbrake on,or the car was not pulling very well and needed a tune up,lucky the motorbike rider was not dragged the 2 Km too. does not report if the driver was tested for alchol or drugs,which should be a given in cases like this. regards Worgeordie Edited November 4, 2016 by worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinsdale Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 It's all OK. I've been told by a confidential source he's a facebook ideal. There's no problem here. Please go about your business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 He may truthfully had no idea he did it. Fine. Then he clearly doesn't have the sensory capability nor mental capability to be driving. Off with the license, and motoring privileges. And of course he should still be liable for damages.

Briggsy Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 The age of the driver and the cost of the car when put into a Thai context mean that the driver did not pay for it himself. Mummy-Daddy bought/loaned/gave him the car and Mummy-Daddy will buy him out of trouble so there will be no further consequences of his actions. This is the way here.

Further evidence is the fact that the driver was not named. This "courtesy" is not usually afforded to people with unimportant family names.

Doesn't mean anything of the sort. There is no suggestion that this was a new car, 2nd hand Civics can be cheap and any Thai with a job or guarantor can easily finance a car purchase for next to nothing per month. 6 hours ago, fstarbkk said: Agree with your assessment.

The driver was not named because he hadn't been identified at that stage. What courtesy was he afforded? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
