Traffic cops crack down on Soi Paniadchang

Pattaya:--Pattaya traffic police got on the ball and began ticketing and towing cars illegally parked on Soi Paniadchang following residents’ public complaints.

 

Pol. Maj. Arut Sapanon led a squad of traffic inspectors to the Trust Condominium on the central Pattaya street to meet condo executive Wanichaya Chaiyadech in hopes of solving the parking dilemma.

 

Residents and business owners occupying the shophouses along the narrow street claim that the large condominium hasn’t supplied enough parking for its tenants, and so the tenants are parking on the street.

 

Arut confirmed that cars parked on both sides of the street have reduced the street to one-way either direction, which was unacceptable. He said cars have been ticketed and towed, but they always return once officers disappear.

"Residents and business owners occupying the shophouses along the narrow street claim that the large condominium hasn’t supplied enough parking for its tenants, and so the tenants are parking on the street."

 

And have said business owners provided any parking for their customers? That would be a first.

Install parking meters and then see what happens, no more problems then.

I see a business opportunity

Believe it or not:

on a stretch of the road there is a handicapped/wheelchair path marked.

Occupied by street vendors you can bet

If Pattaya police have become embroiled then it's a money making opportunity.  Returning cars syndrome is easily solved; three strikes and it's the crusher.  (Not including taxi cabs - they have a free pass.)

The plot of land opposite Pattaya Immigration shows how lucrative selling parking plots can be.  Particularly when the hotel next door claims ALL the public land along the soi belongs to them; they even employ an enforcer.

Do you really think that will solve the problem? just end up with a lot of unpaid fines.

Had a 5 story car park that on high days and holidays was not big enough, had a look round it one time, it was full of abandoned vehicles,  cars motor bike, bicycles, even a wreak of a Tuc Tuc, many were down on their wheel rims as the tyre rubber had perished.

Same problem with condos' and apartment buildings everywhere.  Even if they provide one space per unit, so many households have two or even three cars that the garage is quickly overloaded, often with cars parked long term so daily users have a hard time finding spaces.  Most condos don't like assigning spaces because they are then stuck with policing them and dealing with angry offenders.

I was impressed when I visited Bermuda. No traffic jams.  Only one car allowed per household and no car rentals.

In Singapore, before you buy a car, you must buy a permit to buy the car which costs nearly $100K.  To get the permit, you must show you have a deed or lease for a parking space.  Some Condos there have parking within the condo unit itself and special lifts to service them.

Tow everything, then impound repeat offenders, say 30 days at a time. Also, make sure they are registered, taxed paid up-to-date, vehicle and driver pass safety checks, and they are properly licensed before they get the vehicle back.
