Ao Lueak Police Chief Col Kritsanat Wongklaharn in Krabi says, “At 10am we were notified from Phang Nga Police that a pickup truck had fled to Krabi after a hit and run in Phang Nga.”

 

“After that Ao Lueak Police in Krabi set up a checkpoint to stop the pickup truck. The pickup truck broke though the checkpoint at Na Nuea in Krabi on Petkasem Road.”

John Wayne could not have done better - what a bunch of cowboys

I think the still photo is much more interesting than the video ????

You cant tell me that's not fun....drive it like you stole it brother...

Good work.

This is like a scene from a Thai action movie, only less realistic. And they really need to sack the cameraman. 

and not a bike helmet to be seen anywhere...

nice video of a car's interior.

Welcome to Thailand!   Proof of admission for the matinee 20K baht please...

I think he crashed!

Might have been a better idea to get in the car that's following the motorbike ????

Police didn't think this might happen and have chase autos ready?

What did they think "hit and run" means?

 

I miss a "Wow, only in amazing Thailand"-option in the like-buttons...????

The only police cars I have seen in Thailand are Highway Patrol escorting VIPs, pickups full of traffic cones, and Tourist Police imitating real ones.

 

The concept of preventive or detection patrols seems absent here, probably interrupts the running of the secondary businesses too much.

Sounds like fun!  It may be a good idea as a tourist adventure.  They can charge tourists to be cops in Thailand~just 2 hour training session, and you can do what the RTP won't.  A BB gun, some pepper spray, and a taser, and you can enforce the lawless, streets, bars, higways...

If accompanied by an officer, real weapons are allowed
