Accident

Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us. Most people who live in or visit Cambodia have also checked out nearby countries like Vietnam, Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines, and you can get to most of these countries by traveling overland, so put any travel plans, reviews or questions here. Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

There was a security guard in a van who saw the whole thing and wouldn't let the other driver leave. They don't always accuse the barang first, the crowd was quite awesome.
We had a group of Khmer friends conducting the negotiations for us after they took me to the clinic and got me cleaned up and medicated.
They agreed on an amount to get the bike repaired, and everything was handled for us.
I was expecting to get lynched but we were clearly not in the wrong.

They gave a $300 deposit and if it's more they will have to pay more, if it's less they will get the change.

Glad to read you weren't knocked out and hospitalized. Bit surprised but happy at the offer of compensation. And glad the crowd was with you.

I dont know which part of that story to believe, the second part or the third part.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

You seem to be very easily persuaded to add points for Sihanoukville. Take away the points from the meet up and what would the score be?

Why are we taking points away from the meet up? It was awesome!
