webfact Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Pattaya — At 0:30 AM, on October 1st, 2023, Pol. Maj. Chakkrit Chantakham and a Banglamung police investigative squad were stationed on the highway, Pattaya–Rayong bypass road, and on Krating Lai Beach. The surveillance purpose was to deter street racers on the highway from annoying locals late at night. Furthermore, many youngsters gathering for a drink at the Krating Lai beach area would reportedly cause trouble for other visitors with loud noises and quarrels.

I think half a dozen 12 wheelers should drive down there side by side and have some fun too! Be a better idea to open up the Bira track for them kids! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deserted Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Yeah but maybe less of a thrill doing it that way as they are then doing something they should be doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't make a difference... there is plenty of legitimate recreation venues... we are talking drunk teens after midnight... you want to underwrite that?

However the issue with "race tracks" is they are not free to enter and not open in the early hours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to under-write... give them a place to go... race is at their own risk... spectators are also under the same understanding. Innocent bystanders will be no-where near them.

retarius Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 RTP, well done. Good move. It is so rare to see a cop after nightfall where I live, one is more likely to see a hen with 32 teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the point of a racetrack if you can't carry a gun? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattjock Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 They should also stop the extremely noisy bikes speeding up and down Thappraya road, both day and night. Max speed on this road should be 60kmp but there is not a single speed sign. There are a few gantry's over this road with a number of cameras and other equipment that could be used, but they probably don't work. Thousands of people live along this road in hotels, condos and houses and they are woken up every night by the noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
