If it’s the same accident, we’ve just heard about our tuk tuk driver friend from Airforce Bar on 104 who was in an accident last night.

Some of you will probably recognize him.

We have heard that he died this morning but that is unconfirmed.
Really hope it’s not true.

That' s really sad. There are too many drunken twats racing through PP streets after dark, and tuktuks are not made to get smashed into at high speed by big cars.
I hope the killers get locked up and the guy's family at least gets some money. Not that that will bring him back. RIP
