I think he may have just left to check out the luggage and then thought to quickly come back, but there is no way in heck he could park the taxi anywhere at a gas station that would make it unseeable. He just got cold feet afterwards or got a heads up from the taxi place that he was going to be busted. His next paln was to drive to the destination and say, hey, what happened? Where did you go? If anyone buys his story then they deserve to get ripped off.

In chanel 7 news they showed when the police arrived at the gas station and not found the taxi driver or his car. The police was a quite of time there also to check the cctv footages. I guess he watched the Thai tv news and realized they got him on the camera.

Not sure how it worked or works. But I would think the police called the taxi company and then they gave him a call and the low down that he is in trouble. If a taxi isn't there always a connection to some outifit depending on the color of the taxi? I know taxi drivers won some cars, and some rent them, but the over all facts on how it works I am not quite sure.
