The other paper's version would have to be more credible if you stop to think about it.

Regardless of the time of day, would anyone really take a guy dressed like Tossapon seriously? Not a chance he is anything other than a little weasel opportunist. But the Brit, who probably thought so too, should have just kept his window up and gunned his engine. Anyway, kudos to the bystanders who caught the little scumbag. I'm sure if any of them thought he was anything other than a weasel pest, they would not have done so. (I'm assuming here that the bystanders are locals - foreign boozers at that time of day would not interfere - and know what's going on.)

Now you know the reason people just park on the road and don't worry about parking lots, if all you're doing is dashing into a shop. The odds that a policeman will ticket you are slim to none. Bangkok has actually implemented enforcement of no "road parking" but most of Thailand ignores this law.

how convienent that a piece of wood was nearby.and look at the smirk on the coppers face as he squeezes his arm.

You've obviously never been to Thailand meatboy, or you would know that the man is a rescue (first aid supplier) officer.

Know your uniforms before you make stupid comments next time.......

Think you will find Meatboy has been resident in Thailand for many years.

Nice of the man in uniform to squeeze his arm to see if he was telling the truth.

Should have paid his parking fee.

If you live and drive in Thailand you should know the procedure.

If he was back at home he would be looking at a 3000 baht fine.

No he would not.

He had not committed any offense.

You seem to have missed the expression on the Brit's face. Obviously playing it for all it's worth. And undoubtedly he played arrogant Khun Farang when approached by the attendant. He certainly is to be congratulated on saving the Baht 40.

You have jumped to every conclusion going without knowing the facts of the case.

Lets hope that the 19 year old has to face assault charges in court then all the facts will emerge.

If we eliminated all the shit that happened after midnight the pile would be reduced substantially.

Stay home after midnight and enjoy life.

Absolutely! And while we're at it, let's just require everyone to have a police clearance to leave their home at any time, day or night! You know. Sort of like that "hall pass" thing to go the restroom back in grade school. That pesky "choice" thing just gets people in trouble. Personal liberty is way overrated...

Some guy realizes he's being scammed, refuses to go along or be intimidated, and is attacked with a weapon. No wonder thai teens see farangs as easy meat. Some of you are gonna' just LOVE those bracelets they're thinking about making tourists wear... The perfect fashion accessory for the easily intimidated. Better learn to keep some "ready cash" in your pocket at all times.

40 baht parking fee doesn't justify the violence. This isn't the first time unpunished violence against Toruists.

I wish they stop coming, perhaps then somethings will change.

Wonder if said car park attendant was on the payroll of the car park owner.

Or at 2:30am just an opportunist who saw cars parking on an unattended car park and thought he could make some easy money.

If he was on payroll, he probably won't be any more. Any record will be destroyed and said car park owner will deny ever knowing said car park attendant.
