Jeeze 

What's going on?

You got a purp with a ball cap covering his eyes.

You got RTPs properly lined up.

You got a gun.

You got a clip for the gun.

You even got bullets lined up.

 

Where the pointing?

 

 

Nothing special about this ,

If they stop and search all the Tuk Tuks/Taxis/Vans than they will find More then a few Illegal Items/Weapons.

Seem to recall hearing they (taxi, truck, tuk tuk, van drivers) mostly all carried a weapon of sorts... be it a wrench to a gun.

Pattaya police view taxi drivers as The Untouchables.  Not one has been arrested for not using their meters in the last TEN years.
