Video: Chiang Mai beauty red faced but not shocked after her new car rolls into the moat

 

 

Manager reported that a Chiang Mai beauty was embarrassed but not shocked after her brand new car rolled into the moat yesterday.

Thirty eight year old Norarat Uplabat, the owner of Nails and Brows by Ying in the central city, was visiting Computer City on Manee Nopparat Road to take back some faulty equipment.

She left the brake off her Suzuki Swift that she bought three months ago because the car park was full and she had to double park.

But just moments after she carried out her computer someone shouted that her vehicle was moving.

Unable to do anything but watch, the car rolled over the road and into the moat bonnet first with the back wheels getting stuck on the concrete edge.

Fortunately no one was hurt and there was no accident caused.

Norarat said there was nothing to be done but call the insurance company.

She took the incident with good humor and kept a smile on her face telling reporters that she was not shocked but was more than a little embarrassed with all the people watching.

The alternative was to look for a vacant spot somewhere else and walk to Computer City. Imagine that.

Walk impossible, no Thai will walk more than 20 meters.

The "Thai smile" has become quite an irritant to me

When some people do something wrong and they just smile

Like, ha ha ha , my cars just rolled into the moat

[kratiam]

Smiling because she could imagine what the free publicity for her salon was going to be worth!

I was on my to Rock Me Burger at 400 PM and the vehicle was still in the Moat.  A tow truck was there.  I was on my way back at 730PM and the vehicle was still in the moat but this time a crane had arrived.  A guy was diving into the brown water and was trying to hook the cable onto the front of the of the car.  I am not expert on vehicle recoveries but would not have been a better idea to pull the vehicle from the back?  But then I realized "TIT" This is Thailand.

Probably less chance of further damage to the undercarriage.
You did say crane not a normal tow truck didn't you ?

Yes to be sure beauty IS in the eye of beholder but I would have to be blind to think she is a beauty as described. Average looking with that typical gioconda smile that Thais have perfected.

Good going!At least she did not blame it on some one else.

She admitted it was her fault,nothing about losing face here.

We need more of this in Thailand.

[Pattaya28]

Double Parking.

Why not ?

Who would mind some "random" shuffling my new car ?

And she found it hilarious !!

Could so easily have caused a major accident as it crossed the road.

More Thainess in all its' glory.

Really? How much extra business do you think she actually got from this "free publicity"?

I dont think so .

When people do something wrong , IMO , its better that they understand what they did wrong and try not to do it again, rather than just smiling about it and doing exactly the same thing again later

Possibly the tow truck guys had only ever seen cars towed from the front - therefore no other way to do it!

But will the insurance company pay for sheer stupidity?

[chickenslegs]

Well, at least she had the good manners to leave the handbrake off whilst double parking - not all do.

 

But, as they say - No good deed goes unpunished.

[hotchilli]

It's all a mis-understanding...

She was dipping the headlights like the handbook say's!!

[Gandtee]

I bet the person she was blocking in and gave it a shove is having a laugh.

Brake failure!  A legitimate excuse this time; makes a change.

The brakes failed!!!!!

 

[yougivemebaby]

I see the car but don't see a beauty. 

[laocowboy2]

I actually thought she behaved very well. Admitted it was a result of her actions and did not try to shift the blame.
