webfact Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Siam Rath reported on the resolution of a case that reached the ears of General Damrongsak Kittipraphat - the top cop in charge of ending street racing in Thailand. Damrongsak was furious after seeing three young street racers on motorcycles racing and blocking an ambulance. Their antics hit social media. The general sent in his minions from the police station at Phanna Nikhom in Sakon Nakhon to find the young tearaways. Soon rounded up were Nanthawat, 16, Theeradech, 17, and Rattakorn, 15. They appeared at the police station looking slightly less cool than on their souped up bikes. They were dressed in silly hats!

Nanthawat was the ringleader, reported Siam Rath, saying that the gang had just got gas then went racing before hearing the siren, whereupon Nanthawat started laying flat on his seat and causing no end of trouble to the ambulance. The police also got in on the photo-op, standing to proud attention by the confiscated bikes.

When I was young my mates and I did some stupid things, but blocking an ambulance is more than stupid, it’s malicious too, we wouldn’t have acted maliciously and we would more likely have dealt with anyone acting like that.

I always prefer the steamroller approach. No recovery from that and somehow more viscerally satisfying. I have to admit that finding a Thai person to set a fire is much easier than one who can operate a steamroller safely without brake failure.

I'd agree if you multiplied by a factor for "odds of causing grievous harm", especially to innocent people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punishments? They don't even stop the scrotes from wearing stupid hats to hide their identities! This is the land of jumping jacks and push-ups, then back onto your unregistered bike with no licence or helmet, carrying four children, driving the wrong way at high speed. You wouldn't want to make anyone feel bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photoguy21 Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 They need to stop playing soft with them. 3 months in jail, Baht 5,000 fine and crush the bike. Subsequent times double the penalty of the first time. Chances are you would get very few going to a second time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
