Some people just can't help themselves from helping themselves. It would appear he was caught before he had the chance to make his wicket sticky.

Pattaya28 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I find this behaviour absolutely disgusting, even if she had legs up to the armpits and a lo-cut blouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you clowns have any idea what 3,000 baht is?....No I didn't think so. To you it is a short/long time with a bar girl. In Thai reality it is a substantial fine. 10 days at minimum wage...do the maths Kindly allow me to raise that the taxis who come to the residence here and take you to town (about 10 to 15 min. drive), the charge per journey is THB 300,-- .. Thus 3000,- THB would mean perhaps the cost for only 10 such journeys....perhaps a bit less then a day's work, depending... I agree that for some it may be a half month's salary or 10 days as you point out.....but for those who drive people around, and many other occupations, I may be a bit more merciless in assessing their assets!!

I really doubt that its the same taxi driver driving from your house to town, there and back, ten times a day There is also the taxi drivers expenses . I really doubt that taxi drivers earn 90 000 Baht per month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fines here are so out of date that they need at least another 0 adding to the penalties. 1000b now is peanuts considering what it was worth before the big baht crash a number of years back. $30 fine for public indecency is just a huge joke. Doing that with a woman passenger alone in a moving car is not just "indecency" charges... Try that in the west and you probably get to be a registered sex offender for.....

Which of course would have made a nicer story. That was what I thought when I read the first sentence. English not an easy language to convey a message. The driver is just trying to save some money with his D.I.Y method. The lady should try to understand he mean no harm so she should forget about it. I am sure she watch this sort of thing often on the internet and enjoy it. So why make a big fuss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a street in my country called "Stupidity Street" and I live in that street so you guess I 'm being stupid is correct. Whatever little education i had I never come across rhyme about merchant bankers, but I did learn some Homer Greek Rhyme(translated to english) in Greek literature. By the way I was disappointed when I went to Greece I didn't find the population civilized despite all their literature. When they talk loudly I thought it was kind of crude and uncouth.
