Life in the Isaan Boonies.
A good point IJC; worth considering for sure. When I first heard from the Mrs about the crash, she was calling from Ban Dung Police Station. It all sounded so terribly drastic. Pulled out onto a main road in front of the m/c. She basically admitted that it was all her doing and agreed to pay all costs. Don't know whether she signed anything. The Mrs says she can't remember. Later that day, I recalled being at a school open day a couple of years back, when they announced that they had 'real time' vid cameras at places around the school. I spoke to Mildred, and she did the biz and got a copy from 'Camera 1'. Passed it on to me. That's how I got it. It showed a different story of the incident. Another camera - 'Camera 2' - is set up on the far corner where the m/c first entered the road. That one was pointing down the main road where the school back gates are.. But not so applicable, except it could have shown excessive m/c speed perhaps. So the dosh breakdown is this: 13k to fix m/c. 3.5k for injury. And, an estimated 25k+ baht for car repair. Paid 15k down to the garage, and waiting for the final bill. So final costs could be approaching 50k. As with a lot of Thai ladies, getting to the bottom of money transactions can be sometimes difficult, and often exasperating. But in this case - for once - I think it's all above board. If not fair and square. All history now. Lucky escape for all parties.- 1
