    Speaking to reporters at police station today, Rungruj apologized for his actions and said he’s frustrated with the rise of unlicensed vehicles that steal passengers from him and fellow tuk-tuk drivers.

    Uh huh.

    ^ "Irony" is not the word.
    But to be fair, I expect he means "taxi license" as opposed to driver's license.

    To be fair, it's as illegal for him to drive passengers as it is a Grab driver.

    So he can fucking do one.

    Just seen the video, tourists must of been terrified.
    I'd love to have lumped him over the head with that iron bar if he was hassling my family like that.

    Thai "service mind".

    And at the end of the video, the tourists say they'll "just walk" instead, so it looks like nobody got any money.

    Lt. Col. Piyapan said Rungruj was carrying a wooden stick as a weapon at the time. Despite the kick, police did not press assault charges against the tuk-tuk driver, Piyapan said.
