A woman was kicked off an inter-provincial minivan last Thursday for the crime of being too tall to ride.

Standing at a decidedly non-massive 175 centimeters, Atiporn Bunkert was asked by a van operator at Bangkok’s Mochit 2 Terminal to leave a van making a stop between Nakhon Sawan and Pattaya because her “legs were impolitely placed and getting in the way of other passengers”, she told Daily News.

According to a post shared with YouLike from her Facebook page, She was asked not to re-enter the van in Bangkok even though her mom and dad were onboard.

When she disagreed with the driver, they told her that, if she didn’t like it, she could sit on the roof.

“Then a woman I don’t know who she was kicked me out of the van and cursed at me. She said I didn’t sit properly,” wrote the young woman.

She posted video of the interaction and has asked for help from officials.

In her opinion, she did not cause issues for other passengers.

At least she didn’t have her stinky feel up on the headrest as one foreign backpacker recently did and who was shamed virally after the man seated in front of her posted about her behavior.
