Win Motorbike Riders Allegedly Obstruct Bolt Rider from Transporting Passenger

[snoop1130]

 

A group of orange-vested motorbike taxi riders, traditionally referred to as Win, in Pattaya allegedly ganged up to obstruct a ride-sharing rider from transporting a passenger. The incident was captured by a bystander and later went viral on social media, raising questions about the behavior of the Win riders.

 

The altercation, which took place in front of Somerset Pattaya Hotel near the popular tourist spot, Central Festival Pattaya Beach, on Second Road, initially became known to the public through a TikTok video posted by an unidentified eyewitness to the incident.

 

The video captured the moment when an unidentified conventional motorbike taxi rider suddenly jumped in front of a motorcyclist, who seemed to be a ride-sharing rider from the Bolt app. The problem presumably arose from the fact that the Bolt rider was transporting a passenger on his rear seat, which might have reportedly angered the Win rider waiting for customers in the area.

The behavior that has been ongoing for decades? They all know about it, but enforce no laws as usual.

So where else would a bolt rider transport a passenger if not on his rear seat?

How did the Win thugs know he was a Bolt rider?  Is there a uniform?

Sat up front? Saw a well loaded bike the other day and struggled to figure who was actually driving it,

Most likely not the baby mounted on the front. TIT
