webfact Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Video: Ambulance driver has some fruity language for car that sideswiped him Picture: Thai Rath An ambulance driver in Chiang Mai did not mince his words when he was transporting two sick people to hospital. A driver in a Honda City sideswiped his ambulance as he completed a dangerous move in undertaking and passing between him and another vehicle. Posting on Facebook Tanyakorn Kawee said he was driving in the Mae Rim area when it happened. It was lucky that the ambulance did not end up overturned, he said, as the car fled the scene. Thai Rath reported the story but as is customary omitted the bad language though the driver can be heard saying swearing on the video.

isaanbanhou Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 English subtitles would make the video more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksidedog Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I think I would have had a few choice words if someone pulled that maneuver on me. That is exactly the appalling driving we all condemn, which causes accidents and deaths, but about which, the cops do nothing and explains simply, the reason for such unbelievable carnage on Thailand's roads.

quandow Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Well, officials say they are going to stop the road carnage. Can't wait for them to begin the process. <sarcasm> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob12345 Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 If you pass an ambulance which is going at full speed with sirens on, you might want to slow down and wonder if you are not speeding a little bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TKDfella Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Well, at least the car's indicator is working nicely...all the way down the road. These drivers just can't wait to die...and maybe kill others in the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulic Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 Not sure exactly what is being said but in Canada it would probably be referred to as "salty" language. That is unless he is actually talking about fruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cereal Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 So what was the ambulance driver saying? "You stupid strawberry! I'm gonna kick your kiwi and beat you into apple sauce." As well, what does undertake mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specifically, overtaking another vehicle using the inside lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The younger thai men on motorcycles love driving as fast as the motorcycle will go from traffic light to traffic light, in heavy traffic, at night, no headlight, no helmet and drunk. Stupid question... what is going through their mind at this very moment? Exactly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wotsdermatter Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Actually, it seems as if he is trying to pass the ambulance so that when he does have a collision the ambulance will arrive in time to take him to hospital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
