Drunk Frenchman and a Tuk-Tuk Driver Have Some Road Rage in Siem Reap

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

The French angry monkey picture first posted is almost better than a video. Amazing.

Haha, I looked and looked. Pisses me off because we know there's video footage out there somewhere. No way a Barang and a Tuk-Tuk driver got in a scuffle and nobody took a video.
you have 24 hours! dont disappoint me again! :whip:
Damn. I have a video to post about a suicidal foreigner. Does that count? Image

Or Siem Reap for that matter. That particular stretch of road where the accident happened is particularly bad. I have had a couple of near misses there just trying to cross the road, because of the the insane Cambodian drivers speeding and weaving trough traffic.

Two days ago some barang comes flying by me on a Step, obviously looking to race me,
he goes on like a mad man, whoa, great driver, probably much better than me,

I stay in the pack as usual, it's the easiest way to go.

I've gotten used to PP traffic, and I find most of the locals to be driving safely, and not speeding..

the youngsters of course pushing each other to go faster, that is awful,
and a reason to be driving daytime between rushhour as much as possible here.
I usually go like I did in LA, 10-11 in the morning and 1-4pm in the afternoon.

as the sun goes down, safety on the streets goes as well, but in my time here, no major probs..

and seldom going past the 50km/h mark on my crusty worthless piece of shit Suzuki..
