hobz Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I think both are wrong. THe BMW should not have pulled out like that. And the filming car had plenty of time to slow down and get behind the BMW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not the case in this topsy-turvy world. Maybe in the future we can all have a feature in the car to vote on other drivers driving habits, enough demerits and the bad drivers car automatically pulls over to the side of the road and won't restart until the next day.

The behavior then really leaves something to be desired! I think a lot of the locals think the more expensive the car the more the BiB will look t'other way . A chap a few years ago was driving a Ferrari I seem to remember , I wonder if he bothered to get a licence . To drive that is , not to kill.

ujayujay Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 11 hours ago, geoffbezoz said: Well there are a variety of issues here. Firstly the BMW exited the soi, not into the nearside lane and then increased his speed which would then allow a safe filter across the other lanes, rather he drove straight out,with poor car control to actually swerve slightly back to the middle lane. He was in the main the poor driver. However, secondly, the vehicle with the cam sounds like an old tractor so judging by the stupid selection of dials stuck on the dashboard it would suggest it was a tarted up old pick-up driven by a boy racer, witness the speed he was doing compared to other traffic. So whilst the BMW I would apportion 60% of the fault to the other 40% must lie with the other driver for driving to fast and not paying sufficient attention as he should have seen the exiting BMW sooner to allow him to take a smoother line of avoidance. Punishment should be a Wai and give the local Monk a few baht for the BMW driver and for the pick-up driver, confiscate his pick-up until he fits a legal exhaust. Next case. ????

lipflipper Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 We can all go on and on about these incidents with Mr. Wanna Be Hi-So and their self of entitlement when they drive around in a BMW, MBZ, PORSCHE, Audi no matter how old or worn out it looks. It's never going to change in Thailand. The attitude of I'm Better than You is seen in all aspects of Thai life just more so when they have something to show to justify that self entitlement attitude.

whaleboneman Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Not sure what the dash cam car was but I think the BMW has right of way in Thailand. Unless he was cutting off a Mercedes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxYakov Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Both drivers are at fault. Mr. BMW was, as far as I'm concerned making unsafe lane changes (or was attempting to) and was guilty of road rage and unnecessarily and dangerously confronting Bird. Bird was moving much faster than traffic flow, albeit in the fast lane, and was unnecessarily using his horn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
