webfact Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Video: Road rage fight as Vios driver goes to get a knife A video showed a violent altercation between a Vios driver and the driver of another vehicle in Chonburi. The Vios driver was seen repeatedly going into the other vehicle. Finally he goes to the back of his car and retrieves a long knife. The other vehicle takes off and the Vios driver slashes at it with his weapon. He then chases after the other vehicle. It was caught on a phone in a car behind that was blocked in by the cars stopped in Sethakit Road in Muang district of Chonburi. Manager reported that the two cars had been chasing each other for some time before they stopped to settle their differences. Somchoke Taphon of Chonburi police said it looked like road rage. He said it was probably caused by lane changing without indicating or one driver cutting in front of the other. Police are studying CCTV and investigating the matter.

It did come equipped with an extra vanity mirror and a hanger for a machete. She didn't believe me about the extra mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z42 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 The RTP with their incredible powers of deduction again.. It looks like road rage.. smh ? What's to investigate. Haul these idiots in. You already have a list of offences as long as your arm to book them with.. But no doubt they'll only be invited to the station at their leisure and it'll all be a misunderstanding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCC1701A Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) Thailand is a primitive country. In the USA this would be a running gun battle using the latest American and Austrian firearms technology with full live HD video coverage by helicopter. Thailand has a long way to go.

khunpeer Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 do you want to know more about Thai people? go drive a car for a while and you'll know exactly how their mentality works! I don't like generalism, but in this case I make an exception! so many nitwits on the road that have absolutely no clue about what's going on with being part of traffic! you wonder why there are no more accidents per day... I'm sure that half of the drivers have no drivers-licence, nor ever did any test... they just do something until it goes wrong... and then the family must help solve it due to lack of money...

Not many foreigners go through the regular driving license test for cars: creeping around the office yard, stopping at STOP signs or the like, using the indicators when turning and doing some parking exercise. That's it! In Germany this goes under the name of "traffic kindergarten" for the little ones. No practical driving school necessary, no practicing on the road at all before getting the license. Now leave the yard and off you go (to Bangkok city traffic ). (I did the motorcycle license/test and so got some ideas what is happening at the DLT office) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how that makes me (or you) an "apologist". I would defend far more about my home country than I would Thailand! But to generalise that Thai men need developing (which is what I was commenting on) is, I'm sure even you would agree, is nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a hammer under the seat and always a small can of powerful pepper spray that I get from the usa on my pants belt. But I wouldn't even stop to talk to them, what's the point? I'll drive on until I can't, then blast them with spray if it comes down to it. Hammer for a very last resort, but the spray should do the trick. Zero face to worry about for me. Staying alive is the name of the game. I'd rather run them over and pay their family off than get shanked by a rusty lawn tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never encountered violence yet, not sure how I would respond.. stopping has no use given the language barrier. I speak Thai but probably not enough to calm down an enraged idiot.

gandalf12 Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Most of them are only tough if they have a gun or a knife. It is an even bigger pity that most of them have the mind of a 2 year old. Maybe someday they will grow up but from the news that could be a very long way away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
