Picture: Thai Rath

 

The Thai press in the form of Thai Rath were keenly following the story of stuntman Krissadaporn Cheepsatyakorn, 27, who is in hot water after posting a film of him riding a Harley Davidson in Chinatown.

 

He was standing up on the 1,200 CC American machine. 

 

ASEAN NOW earlier reported that Krissadaporn would be facing many charges and could be jailed.

 

He would not be charged with not wearing a helmet, however.

 

Thai Rath said that RTP deputy commander Pol Gen Damrongsak Kittipraphat was following the case.

 

It was clear that the RTP wanted an example to be set after tens of thousands viewed the man's antics on Bangkok's Yaowarat Road.

 

Krissadaporn - who does shows - told Prapplachai 2 police that whenever he sees an empty road he gets the urge.

 

Today he is due in court to sort out some financial matters in connection with his 680,000 baht bike that has already been seized.

The day they set out to make examples of corrupt officials will be more newsworthy than picking on this idiot.

Probably a 500 baht fine...yeah a real good example.

Pity Thailand doesn't have a circus, He'll do well there, will do even better if he was monkey riding a Harley....

He has better riding skills than most I see everyday.

Since when a motorcycle rider needs "skills" such as his?... he'll end up dead, maimed or hurting others...

Yes the need to make an example of him, also people who go through

red lights, don't stop at Zebra crossings, arsonists that set fires up in

the hills of the North, 500 and 1000 THB fines are not cutting it , there's

no incentive to change their ways, put some in prison , then it might

let the rest know the powers that be are really serious. will it happen,

sadly I doubt it......

Can't they make an example of a Ducati-riding cop, instead?

Yet they're still deciding what to do with the doctor killing cop?

Germany, France, Austria and the Nordic countries issue punishments based on a person's wealth.

Police impound Harley.

 

Random police take it out for a joy-ride.

 

Oops, there goes another doctor.

How about ALSO making an "example" of the speeding, motorcycle-riding RTP police officer who recently ran down and killed the lady doctor while she was crossing the street in a zebra crossing?  ????

He's wearing a helmet, I don't see what their problem is.
