webfact 183849 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Picture: Daily News RTP chief Gen Suwat Chaengyodsuk's new Smart Safety Zone 4.0 has claimed its first arrest. The bespectacled chief announced the pilot for the smart cop program recently at a virtual event that was much ridiculed online. As part of the campaign there were 60 CCTV cameras installed in the Pak Chong area of Khao Yai on Route 3052 and these caught the antics of a group of Big Bikers who sealed off the road and did wheelies. The cops managed to track down Uthen, 45, at a motorcycle shop and he admitted to doing a wheelie and was charged with negligent and scary riding and putting other road users in danger. Picture: Daily News His Suzuki GSX-R1000A was also seized. The court fined him 3,000 baht and ordered him jailed for one month, suspended for two years. Picture: Daily News The bikers' activities outside the Toscana caused widespread criticism online, reported Daily News. -- © Copyright ASEAN NOW 2021-10-05 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow ASEAN NOW on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarrySR 2754 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Some of the best YouTube videos are "bikers vs cops". The bikers intentionally antagonize the police, popping wheelies and flipping them the bird & use GoPro cameras to record the "cat & mouse" chase....then monetize the videos on YouTube. LOL My favorite are the dirt bike vs police as they lead the cops all around town then zip off road. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With many bikes it's not too difficult to get them up. But difficult to keep them in the sweet spot and make sure you don't make a backward flip. I can still see the leftovers from my bloody knees when my wheelie performance with my 80cc bike 35 years ago still needed improvement...

Nojohndoe 1505 Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 Ok. Illegal activity. Against the law. In a "sealed off street"? Is that legal? I would prefer the police do something about the 2/3/4 up children of perhaps 7<10 year olds constantly cruising about on a daily basis. Barely capable of keeping the bike upright when stationary, wobbling about as pillion passengers lurch around behind them "checking" progress and giving unqualified advice. I honestly believe that the parents of these children need be prosecuted and sentenced to not less than 6 months as unpaid assistants in ER's or EMS vehicles! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
