webfact Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Video: Big Bike vs Pick-up: Pattaya highway race ends in gun drawn Picture: Thai Rath A video posted on Facebook showed a souped up pick-up stopped at the lights heading towards Central Pattaya. Next to the pick-up were two motorcyclists on large motorcycles. The pick-up, clearly itching for a race, pulls off at speed after revving his engine. One of the big bikes does a wheelie and soon the pick-up stops and points a gun at him as he passes. Then at the Soi Siam Country Club lights the pick-up driver gets out and threatens his friend who apologizes. The protagonists later ended up at the police station after a police report was made and the pick-up driver gave himself up and apologized. Thai Rath did not report on the action if any of the police from the incident that happened at the weekend. But they did say that it was all terrible for the image of Pattaya.

Popular Post thaifan01 Posted June 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2018 Morons!! All of them. Not sure whats the right solution except throwing the idiots in jail. Maybe start seizing the vehicles so it really hurts, including trucks. Something have to be done, thats for sure. But I would not put my savings on it... 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He belongs to the lowest form of human development steering a four wheeler. If I see one I avoid any kind of confrontation or eye contact. To be honest: you meet such type in "civilized" countries too. All big bikes and the pickup in the video should be seized and scrapped. Not even worth to be thrown on this pile (some police yard near Udon) Edited June 4, 2018 by KhunBENQ 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe from a TV member. (I claim no ownership of any part of it.) "Thailand has a largely immoral/unprincipled, quasi-free society, which cannot be effectively policed under any circumstances. Lawlessness abounds." Another old quote from many years ago. "Society gets the Police Force that it deserves." (i.e. Police are part of the Society.) 7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edgarfriendly Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 nothing shocking here, the roads are a free for all. even video evidence rarely equates to charges being pressed against these dangerous people. anyone who has driven more than a few km here knows that its a deadly venture with constant speeding, line swerving, no indication and zero comprehension of the highway code. in fact its a sick joke that an unknown but significant percentage of thai road users are unlicensed and unskilled resulting in the daily endangerment of everyone else~! but never mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless, your right about the lunatic with a gun part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dictater Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 why the F would they stop at that red light? Knowing the J - off in the truck has already pointed a gun at them. I had a gun pointed at me when I passed a car one time, you know cause of gran jai and all that, and I made sure I never saw that ignorant lump of feces in my rear view again.

Popular Post guzzi850m2 Posted June 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2018 The dude in the truck is like a little boy when he got smoked and felt he lost face. Pointing a firearm at somebody in public will surely give him jail-time? Is that gun registered? If not; more jail time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
