Welcome to Pattaya: vet attacks couple for legal parking

 

PATTAYA:--A Pattaya veterinarian showed he was kinder to animals than humans when he attacked a couple who had the audacity to park their car in front of his office.

The incident played out on a video posted on Facebook Feb. 26, allegedly by the daughter of the woman assaulted.

 

According to the post, her mother had arrived from upcountry and stopped on a public road near an ATM on Soi Khao Noi just before noon Feb. 26 when the male vet came out of the office to complain their car was blocking the entrance to his business.

 

The Thai woman and animal doctor argued, with the woman pointing out that the veterinarian doesn’t own the street and parking there was completely legal. But she moved her car anyway.

 

Yet even that apparently wasn’t good enough for the veterinarian, who beset the 58-year-old woman as she walked to the cash machine, pulling her hair and hitting her in the head with his shoe.

This seems to be a widespread issue in Thailand. Business owners putting cones out in fromt of their business. Threats being made. 

 

Nothing will change in this country when the police don’t do their job and favour people have ‘influence’

Luckily Pattaya is a safe place ....

Maybe on YouTube. Anything happen you can see a Thai making a movie.

I cant be the only one remembering a news article from a year or more ago with a lawyer stating you cant claim public road. Fines up to 100k baht if i remember correctly.

 

Bring the video footage to the cop shop, get him a 100k baht fine, get half yourself for supplying the evidence.

 

Case solved, i will go back to bed now.

Selfish, self absorbed and self entitled. That sums up those that are supposed to enforce the law, now about the veterinarian...

[mikebell]

There's a guy opposite Tops also on Khao Noi - I think he has a massage/beauty shop.  I parked there (to use the ATM two minutes in total) - he practically had a coronary using some very choice language (in English).  He started taking photos until I began inserting myself with a big photogenic smile on them, giving the thumbs up sign.

Totally agree; until Thailand gets a police force instead of mafia bandits, it will always be a banana republic run by a military

Must be barking mad!

I do understand this Vet’s frustration.

People tend to take the <deleted> when parking in front of your property. We have a house Development going on across from us now for the last three months. The workers sit, eat, smoke and have boozing parties in front of our property. Construction vehicles block our entrance daily and now they started leaving construction waste in front of our shop. 

Don’t complain or call the cops if you value your lives!

If you don't want your tyres slashed, don't park legally in front of somebodies shop.

Or scratched your car from front to back, what me happens long time ago in Patong.

We call it the "Thaiway"

Quite common. 

Not that anybody tried to beat me (6.4) but shop owners were shouting. 

As result there had been scratches on my car. 

Since then I park my car more carefully. ????

Legit parking in front of business on a thoroughfare as opposed to parking outside one's house ain't the same.

Bet he wouldn't try it on with a Merc. Sooner or later he's going to step in dog S and shout at the wrong Martian. Hope it gets posted here... I just love payback.

There's a pretty good chance he's paying the cops or some other local mafia for that privilege.  

 

He may be perfectly justified, being angry for not getting what he has paid for.  But he's taken it out on the wrong party.

There's a tattoo shop owner on Soi Bukhaow who thinks the same way, I usually park my bike between his shop and  the next shop while I go to restaurant over road, because he can' park his totally outrageous ( and unlicensed) chopper in front of his shop he carries on like a two bob watch. When I call tourist police he came out ranting and raving, I simply point out to police this is public road and bike is not licensed that shut him up.

It goes both ways when it comes to parking in front of businesses/shops etc, most Thais (including those parking) will respect the spots in front of businesses as primarily for the customers/deliveries of those businesses. If you ever own a business then you also benefit from the practice,  

It took me a while to fully understand as I would be somewhere with my wife looking for a park and she would say "you cant park there, it for the shop". It wasn't until we owned a restaurant in a busy soi, and most thais would leave the spot in front empty unless they were customers, that I fully appreciated the unwritten practice. .

 

Yes, its legal public parking, but why fight the system that many Thais go by. usually all it takes is a quick acknowledgement to the shop owner that you will only be a couple of minutes, a quick thank you etc and everything is fine.

 

Its a respect for someone running a commercial venture, where a customer/deliveries being able to park may mean the difference between profit or loss that day.

 

I was waiting for someone the other day and literally watched a mom and pop hardware store, all morning pick-ups were coming and going, business was thriving, people pretty much left those spots for the hardware store. Until a farang, in the mandatory oversized ford ranger, full of his own importance parked where the pickups and deliveries were being done. I watched the hardware guys tell the guy that customers and deliveries are using the spots, the farang just shrugged his shoulders and walked off, probably to sit in a bar all day with his mates.

 

Maybe next time you go to park somewhere, stop and think, (as most Thais do) although I have the legal right to park in this spot, what will be the ramifications for the people trying to conduct a business. Or you can wait until the local council puts up loading zone signs everywhere, all because you coudlnt leave the spots in front of businesses for the businesses.

My experience is they also park where they damn well please and mostly wherever involves the least walking or inconvenience to themselves, in front of my gate being a prime example, blocking me in!
