Bangkok authorities have officially charged a freight train driver for the shocking crime of failing to steer his 500-ton locomotive into a nearby canal to avoid a bus.

Investigators concluded that while the bus driver was busy treating the railway tracks like a luxury valet parking spot, the train driver showed zero initiative by continuing to follow the rails.

“It’s basic spatial awareness,” explained a local official while counting a stack of "voluntary donations" behind a dumpster.

“If there is a giant metal box in your way, you simply yank the steering wheel, regardless of whether your vehicle is physically bolted to the floor.”

The driver now faces decades in prison for his blatant refusal to defy the laws of momentum.

Singaporeans are reportedly jealous that Thai trains are actually heavy enough to kill someone rather than just stalling for three hours in a tunnel.

The bus driver remains a hero for obeying a red light while essentially offering his passengers as a blood sacrifice to the God of Traffic.
