Police arrested 64 motorcyclists on Bangkok streets on Friday night and seized 60 motorcycles which were illegally modified for road racing.

 

In a weekly operation to prevent road racing, police set up checkpoints on roads in Metropolitan Police Division 9 jurisdiction and arrested the suspects and seized their motorcycles.

 

Pol Gen Rungroj Saengkram, deputy national police chief, held a press conference at the Tha Kham police station at midnight to announce the results of the operation.

 

Rungroj said 29 of the suspects were under 18 years old.

The racers have helmets with numbers 46 and 93 and kick each other's motorbikes.

 

 

Sorry just joking, of course no helmets.

Apparently crackdowns and clampdowns don’t work ???? hello!

Take all the punks and their bikes to an auto-wrecker. Throw the bikes in 1 by 1 and make the kids watch as their rides get crunched into a tiny cube.

 

Then fine them the cost of the wrecking.
