SpeakeasyThai Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Why does the driver of the car who is filmiing this find it so amusing? It's not funny whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renaissanc Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 It's clearly a tourist or a foreigner who has bought a fake police vest and rented a motorbike. We have all read how we are to blame for everything. Thais don't do such things, especially the Police! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously you would do that to a drunk Thai policeman!?

Thais have every right to laugh at the internal hypocrisies their police force offers. He wasn't .o6, he was point oh blot-ho. It was a fair reaction to ludicrous.

You probably aren't even aware of what all the legal alcohol limits are in every state, province, and country. Also, sleep deprivation can be as bad as driving intoxicated. Now you're going to tell me that you never drove tired. Oh and how about those prescription drugs that you've been taking. Give me a break!

Driver of the car could have honked his horn also a few times to try make the cop stop. But hey who cares , great footage if he killed himself in front of your dash-cam right ? Already waiting for the police statement , drunk driving foreigner with police vest caught on dash cam. Honk? That may not be a good call, sir. With brain-dead idiots like this, who normally have low self-esteem and fragile egos, he may think he has lost face because you honked (at a policeman, no less!) and the result may be him emptying his clip into your head. Better let nature take its course. If not this time, maybe next. Meanwhile, 'Steve Art Duangchathom' a.k.a. Khun Jirawat will be detained and probably charged with defaming the Royal Thai Pillocks Police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would't recommend blowing your horn at him, #1 you may cause him to crash, #2 he may shoot you. I think the guy with the dash cam did the only thing he could do.

lvr181 Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 Same as "authority" figures anywhere in the world (not just in Thailand) do as I say, not what I do And a police spokesman was quoted (some months ago, I think) that police should be respected? He obviously does not understand that respect is earned NOT demanded! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll clearly do as he pleases in that state unless taken by force,IMO. Oops,similar opinions already posted.
