If you want to drift your car, enrol yourself in a sanctioned drift event. This Malaysian 4 Series (a legit M4?) owner learned things the hard way as he found himself needing to fork out THB 99,000 (more than RM 12,000) worth of damages to several Thai car owners after a moment’s drifting fun ended with several shattered windscreens.

From what we understand, the BMW owner was holidaying in Hat Yai, Thailand when he decided to perform several doughnuts in the parking lot at Chang Puak Camp, an elephant camp attract in Hat Yai.

The parking lot ground was not covered with asphalt. Hence, when the BMW driver decided to perform some doughnuts, gravel started flying causing several windscreens of cars parked nearby to shatter.

At first, not knowing that his reckless act had caused damage to the other cars, the BMW driver left the scene. However, the owners of the four affected vehicles lodged a police report with the Hat Yai Tourist Police.

The police managed to locate the 4 Series driver at the Immigration, Customs, and Quarantine (CIQ) Complex in Sadao, Thailand at about 6 pm on 30-October-2022. Both the driver and his wife were brought to the police station to meet the owners of the affected vehicles.

The BMW driver apologised to the four owners for not realising that his actions had caused damage to other vehicles and agreed to pay the affected owners a total compensation of THB 99,000 for the damage done.
