Picture: Siam Rath

 

Plapplachai 2 police in Bangkok took a dim view after a man was featured online "riding" a motorcycle in Yaowarat Road, the Thai capital's Chinatown. 

 

He was standing on the machine not holding onto anything. The only legal thing he was doing was wear a helmet!

 

Krissadaporn, 27, was soon facing the law.

 

He explained that his post was intended for the 50,000 people who follow him but the footage got out and was shared elsewhere.

 

He said he'd taken it down now.

 

He explained that he was a motorcycle stuntman who would appear at temple shows and the like. 

 

Police were unimpressed and charged him with five offences including negligent and scary driving, driving in an incorrect manner, having no thought for other road users and not having insurance or tax, reported Siam Rath. 

 

He faces 3 months in jail and/or a fine of between 2,000 and 10,000 baht.

Obviously he shouldn't do that.

But probably he still had the bike under better control than many of those want to be racers who are all the time on the streets.

Yes, I've done that myself, in residential suburbia USA, early morning on a Sunday, so nobody else about.  It's actually very easy to do.  Can't imagine doing it in Chinatown, unless a main open-ish road, as didn't view the vid.

Just an the average Thai road user then... But facts are he is a competent rider just doing things not allowed on the highway
