Popular Post MrWorldwide Posted April 12, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2015 Head-on between two motorbikes, and Captain Jack allegedly intoxicated ? I'm sorry, but I've got to feel more the for motosai rider if that is the case - just trying to earn a living and ends up in a coma. Messed up. As with anything reported in the local media, I have to give both sides the benefit of the doubt. RIP Captain Jack. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

car720 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 did he in his life, pay royalties for this impersonation ? Jeez, That's why all of the fun has gone out of this world. Do you think that people who download movies are thieves too? Well, as I've always said........................"I'm not in any hurry to die but I'll be glad when I'm dead".

DrTuner Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) Such is the speed they were both traveling to cause death and a coma out of 2 bikes colliding... speed and intoxications deadly mix.... Travelling in opposite directions, each doing 60kph+, I suppose. In that case one of them was driving in the wrong direction. My bet is the motocy, as they do that on regular basis. EDIT: Ah right, it was C'tan driving on the wrong side this time. Lost my bet. Edited April 13, 2015 by DrTuner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mercman24 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 funny how you arm chair detectives come to conclusions, it was a head-on collision, i could walk 50 yards from my condo and see many motor bike taxis, riding on the "wrong " side of the road , against opposing traffic, so how can you judge, or perhaps you were all there and witnessed it, (yep thought so,no you wern't, probably wrapped up in bed with your cup of cocoa, you are all guessing again) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not gonna change anytime soon - we just like lynching people. That said, if he was drunk it woulldnt have improved either of their chances even if the motosai rider WAS on the wrong side of the road - all pure speculation based on nothing more than the near misses I see every single day. Thai men, in particular, seem to have absolute confidence in their own reflexes and those of everyone else around them on the road - totally misplaced IMO, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balo Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) Never drink and drive, unfortunately locals living here thinks its okay with a few beers or whiskey and drive your bike home. And the police does nothing to prevent it, I see a lot of helmet controls but never seen they do random tests for alcohol.
