A published Ducati monster bike prices put that bike cost at around the 450,000 baht, yes, 450K, that cop must be doing very well for himself to afford such bike unless he's supplementing his salary with other activities...

That's nothing 450,000. I see Thai guys sporting Harley's at the refinery near by. Payment baby.

[G Rex]

If he was driving a Fortuner, costing 1.8 Million Baht - would people still be questioning Police salaries - and how could he possibly afford that?

He has done the wrong thing - but don’t tar and feather him for his choice of conveyance.

Why is a simple pedestrian crossing allowed in an 80KPH zone?  THAT IS A BIG PROBLEM.

[Stargeezr]

In a lot of countries, by now this cop would no longer be a cop and would be

headed to prison for a long time, with manslaughter charges at the least pinned on him, so adding speeding charges

is s good thing if it means longer jail time.

Can you show me where you can get a Ducati Monster for 112,000thb please? I will buy one immediately.

 

Thanks in advance.

No, problem, if you had been quicker, you could have bought the one that's being discussed here for B113k.  I'd help you out with the B1,000 difference.

Here's one...

You'd have to pay a couple of bob extra for this one but I'm sure you could cope with that..

They have them here on 90kph road with NO WARNING signs there is one there at all. Just unbelievable the attitude toward road safety, driver training and enforcement of same.

That particular one is on a 4 lane highway, with central reservation but NO path or paved area on that central reservation either! Its just grass and bushes, not even a dropped curb.

What civil engineer in their right mind places a cross-walk on a road with an 80 kph speed limit? 

The civil engineer who's told to by his salary-payer at the BMA?

I was also not aware, that the police force pays such juicy salaries so that the cops can arrive on fire-red Ducati's. 

What a farçe; I - for one - would start combing through all those temples in the Land, quite some surprised there possibly? 

He paid B113k for it, used, not that much and possibly financed like most vehicles in Thailand.   How is the "fire-red" [sic] colour of any relevance?

 

"What a farce..."

Indeed.  Why would you, "for one", start combing through all the temples in Thailand for a man who is no longer ordained?

In another news story if was said that he had bought the bike secondhand.

Is that the same one that claimed he hadn't yet changed the ownership which is why it was allegedly un-licensed ?

Yes, it is, and that's one of the seven or eight (?) offences with which he's been charged!

I was being facetious, I would buy a new Streetfighter if I really wanted an Italian bike. 

 

One of my employees has pretty much the same bike as in the photo, even the same Termignoni exhaust system.

 

I'm more of a British modern classic / retro guy myself, Triumph, RE, Norton etc.

Yeah, had one trying to get up to similar speeds on Soi Lengkee (Pattaya) yesterday, fortunately making so much noise I knew to get out of the way.

Good on you to keep checks and balances of financed bikes. Some others, doing like you, referred to 450K and was published like that in the written media. 

For those in the know - Red is the colour of Ducati (and Ferrari as well, unless you're the grandson of the Red Bull icon). 

Combing through temples would, I guarantee you, turn up quite some surprises. While this pristine example of citizen good booted out before booted in, there must be many others who sneaked into orange robes as their "case" was not publicly steamrollered by social media as this particular case.
