edwinchester Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 The Fortuner had come to a halt about a second before being hit by the very fast moving scooter so hardly parked and could quite easily have been waiting to pull over or turn to the left but was waiting for the vans to clear.

It had been stopped for nearly three seconds, it was stationary alongside two other double-parked vehicles, it doesn't matter whether it was 'waiting' for something, it was parked where it shouldn't have been. Who said that the scooter was moving "very fast"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tifino Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 No Stopping No Standing No Parking There's quite a distinctive demarcation between each of the above What actual signage was up? If the SUV'er had only stopped for that 3 seconds, then, due to that small time period) he'd still be in the vehicle; so therefore he wasn't Parked...yet! He was Stopped He was Standing But if he was Parked, he'd have (maybe also have removed the keys) left the vehicle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said that the scooter was moving "very fast"? Good to know that when I am waiting to turn right and I have to stop for traffic to pass the other direction I am actually parked, next my iPhone will be sending me messages telling me where I am parked every time I stop. As for moving very fast, the kid was thrown over the 'stopped' vehicle, that must have been some impact. In reality I have no doubt that the driver had stopped with the intention of parking, however your assertation that it was parked because it doesn't matter if a stationary vehicle is waiting for something (does this include waiting to turn, stopping at a Stop sign etc?) it is deemed to be parked.

Happyman58 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I sometimes watch these motorbikes come past with the rider texting. It is really amazing how somebody can concentrate on texting and be watching the road at the same time considering when I am driving my car I concentrate extra hard waiting for an idiot in another car to do something stupid Am I old-fashioned or is it the latest trend when you are riding a bike or driving a car its cool to text? Then again I have a bit of fear in me on what could happen and Thais don't seem to have that. By having not having that fear can cost them there life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what constitutes "very fast" for you, but judging from the total destruction of the scooter and the fact that the driver flew over the parked SUV, slow it was not.

I don't know what constitutes reality for you. Couple of things; the bike didn't suffer "total destruction" any more than any other bike typically seen in these kind of accidents and your understanding of the word "fact" is very odd. He did not "fly over the parked SUV", he bounced off it into the path of a following SUV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly likely, like the young lady on her motorbike last night on Sukhumvit when I was driving home. Without a helmet of course, that would ruin the hair she had been doing a couple of hours.

AlexRich Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 When you are 17 you take a few more risks than more experienced drivers. But every driver at times makes an error of judgement, with most of us getting away with it. The young guy was going a little too fast for that road but the Fortuner driver is a disgrace, and in my view the main culprit, stopping like that on a busy road was madness. I hope he goes to jail. And RIP the kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And not make stupiid comments . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
