Why would they go after themselves? 😂

This is again a direct result of vapes being illegal, same as those stories with 14-year-olds destroying their lungs etc. You don't hear these stories in Europe because they sell quality stuff instead of the Chinese crap available here locally. Legalise them with strict TIS/FDA approval for component quality and e-liquid safety.

The original tyres on the Aerox are horrible and cause this even without any other issues. A rear top box can also cause this easily.

Didn't the goverment just want everyone to stop vaping and switch to "organic" cigarettes instead? Don't complain now when you get the result you wanted.

They could at least knock on the door politely. These scumbags have no limits.

I take my earlier comments back. Looks like the rider ran a red light: https://www.facebook.com/reel/675045872020447 This completely changes the story. Someone not wearing a helmet is only dangering themselves, but red light runners are scum and deserve to get run over. That said, the police should still consider the innocent passenger.

It says in the article it was (allegedly) not a real checkpoint.

But allegedly, it was not a real checkpoint (as per the article).. just the usual bandits being bandits.

It's an interesting logic: wear a helmet to protect your head in case it gets smashed to the ground. Solution: the police will try and crush your head to the ground if no helmet??

I would keep it, but not spend it for a while. For the next few months, I'd keep an eye out for any news of someone losing their cash. If I saw a story of an person losing their cash and I'd be sure it's a match, I would be honest and return the money to the rightful owner. This way, I'd be sure that if the real owner is never found, the money is not kept by someone else.

Why not do the same with drugs, instead of the pointless war on them, trying to punish drug users. Focus on harm reduction and help instead, and see the results. Some countries in Europe now have mobile drug labs to test substances and advice their users on their effects and dangers.

Well, somchais driving through red lights daily don't get a similar reaction (or any reaction at all).

Isn't this exactly what the government wanted with their crackdown against e-cigarettes? Now kids can smoke the healthy organic tobacco instead and keep bringing tax revenue for the goverment and profits for the tobacco monopoly.

The Chonburi province will be so much safer now. Well done BiB for ruining someone's birthday party.

I once saw a female motorbike taxi drop a stack of 100 baht bills from her pocket onto the road while riding in Bangkok. I stopped, picked them up and chased her down, which wasn't too hard on a big bike. When reaching her, I honked a bit to get her attention. She got very annoyed and pointed at the plentiful space next to her for passing. The confusion on her face was great when in response, I handed her a stack of money.
