Bluespunk Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 23 minutes ago, mike324 said: Well the taxi driver said in the video he waited an hour already, the girl told her why don't you just shut the door and wait in the car. It sounds like she was trying to pull a runner, but the taxi driver was hot on her tail so she can't get away. Taxi driver was not aggressive at all until he started to loose his patience after an hour, telling others whats happening. She was giving him the run around. Said, said, said. Is there actually any proof he was waiting for an hour? I’m not defending the woman’s alleged actions. You get a taxi you should pay. However even if true, if, it makes no difference to my point. His behaviour in the video is unacceptable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She told him to stay in the car and wait. She started to say why are you looking for trouble from me. He said can you pay up, she said she's looking for the money. She started yelling at 3:51 mark. She swore at him calling him "hia" first. She called him a "kway" dick...thats when all hell broke loose. So if you don't understand Thai, ask someone to translate the video for you. The fault lies squarely on the girl, even though he unleashed a storm on her later on. If the girl didn't yell and swore at him first, I would say this taxi driver was very patient and polite in the beginning. Even in the Thai forums, people said the blame falls on the girl.

I both read and speak Thai. After 3.51 of being filmed in a stressful situation I might yell at the person filming me. However, that said, I'm not defending her, just expressing my view of the driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaahhhh....more excuses for her behaviour. So she can yell, after getting into a taxi knowing that she had no money and then keeping the driver waiting, so that he couldn't get back to work. But all your venom reserved for the driver/victim, who was probably waiting a lot longer than 3:51 before he starting filming. Something not quite right....

Oh I agree, my criticisms are aimed at the driver, because they are deserved.

I missed that too..how many seconds into the video ???? as far as I can make out she starts the bad language (water monitor) as she is walking across the road ( 0.26) to ask directions from the 2 guys sitting in the front yard then @ 2.39 another water monitor and the real action starts the Taxi drivers language was restrained up to that point..as far as I hear....????

Lucius verus Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Did three years night shift cab driving in OZ. Worst passengers were usually women aged 18 -35. Men were OK most of the time. Women used filthy language and usually shit faced. This was years before PC and gender equality(sic) .God knows what its like now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightSky Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 My Thai language skills are not perfect but I’ll have a go for you... .,I think the lady just arrived back from a day trip at the zoo and apparently she was upset because there were no buffalos, elephants, dogs, monitor lizards, etc which she expected to see.. ..but the taxi driver insisted he saw the buffalos, elephants, dogs, lizards etc and questioned how the lady could have possibly not seen them. I think ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
