In a stringent move, Patong Police issued a stringent directive for all tuk tuk drivers to cease occupancy of public parking spaces, with a particular focus on the area alongside Patong Beach Road.

 

The authorities swung into this action following an incident involving a tuk tuk driver who unlawfully utilised a public parking spot on the Beach Road, also known as Thaweewong Road. This incident unfolded on a Saturday afternoon. Accompanying this is a rash of complaints sieving in through social media platforms, which the Patong Police duly noted in their report.

 

On the said Saturday, at 3.45pm, Patong Traffic Police Captain Pongpan Tesawit arrived on the scene to enlighten the driver on his misdemeanour. The driver stationed his vehicle on one of the twin parking locations along the beach road. Notably, the spot at which this transgression occurred, provides for the parking of 24 public vehicles.


The stern warning was issued under the purview of Patong Police Chief, Police Colonel Sujin Nilbadi, and supplemented by the three Deputy Superintendents of Patong Police Station: Lieutenant Colonel Somporn Surin, Lt. Col. Phum Samem Voranon and Lt. Col. Wutthiwat Liangboonjinda.

I quite enjoy the 'flowery' prose creeping into the articles and headings.

Better than many comments by some folk.

The prose was one thing and then there was the listing of 5 police officers by name and rank... for a warning regarding a parking offense. It just gives me a hard time taking the article serious.
