Foreign man caught urinating on tuk tuk amid traffic jam in Phuket

[webfact]

 

A foreign man was caught on camera taking the p*ss on a red tuk tuk in the Patong neighbourhood of Phuket on Friday. A video of the incident quickly went viral on Thai social media on Friday, June 21.

 

A Thai baht bus driver shared the video on his Facebook account, เบส ซาโจ้, on Friday with a caption that read, “Mobile toilet is everywhere in Patong. I’m sick of this kind of tourist.”

 

In the video, two foreign tourists were seen sitting opposite each other on the red tuk tuk. One of them was drinking a can of beer, while the other, in a red shirt, was urinating directly onto the vehicle.

The foreign man dared to urinate even though the tuk tuk was in a traffic jam, where other motorists could clearly see his actions.

The video drew a lot of complaints about the foreign man in the comments section.

 

“A variety of tourists we have to meet each day.”

“Bad behaviour.”

“Mobile toilet…”

“Don’t poop, OK?”

“This man behaves worse than a dog. The animal chooses a suitable spot to pee, but he doesn’t.”

“Charge him 10,000 baht for cleaning!”

 

In a similar report in March, a foreign woman faced criticism after she urinated on the footpath of Bangla Road in Phuket while intoxicated. She was caught on a viral video pulling off her pants and urinating near a signpost despite many witnesses staring at her.

 

Another incident took place at the Temple of the Emerald Buddha in Bangkok in May when a couple, believed to be Chinese, let their daughter urinate in public outside the Grand Palace. Some Thai netizens felt the girl was too young to understand the rules, while others said her parents were old enough and should have controlled their child.

 

In May of last year, a transwoman was criticised for urinating by the roadside near Lumpini Police Station. Her friend did not warn her about the inappropriate action but instead took a video of her and shared it on social media platforms.

Amazing how many nutters Thailand attract. This guy must be born without brain. I totally agree. Fine him 10-20k and send him directly to IDC Suan Plu without passing GO.

Nobody ever asks why when I tell people I'm moving from Phuket this year. The quality of the visitors is in the toilet nowadays, quite literally it seems.

He could have just gone to one of those handy free public urinals that Thailand is famous for.

Oh, he did.

That doesn't look like a "Tuk Tuk" it looks like a "songthaew".

It is, but for some strange reason they call them Tuk Tuks in Phuket!

A grey area, but its about the size more than anything I think.

Tuk-Tuks are not universally three wheels. 

 

The name 'tuk-tuk' comes from the sound of the 'put-put' engine used...  But I've also heard that the name 'tuk-tuk' comes from the sound of their horn when trying to attract passengers... 

 

The name Song-Thaew comes from 'two rows' (as in two rows of bench seats) - which many Tuk-Tuks also are.

 

As I've always understood it, or as I've always named them: 

 

Song-Thaew is a Pickup based vehicle with bench-seats (as they have in Pattaya)

Tuk-Tuk - Small 3 Wheeled vehicles (Bangkok - as they have in Bangkok).

Tuk-Tuk - Small 3 Wheeled vehicles (as they have in Phuket - rear or side entry).

 

So - the photo's below - all show tuk-tuks...   (not Song Thaews).

 

None usually have buckets...

I was in a bar in Beach Road between sois 7 and 8 many years ago and a guy just dropped his slug out and let the packed bar watched him relieve himself. The mama san protested and he pissed on her too. The guy was jibbering on and it was obvious that English wasn't his language. By the way this was many years before the Russian invasion.

[Kinok Farang]

Thank god he wasn't from China and needing a turkish delight.

‘we’ ??  Who is ‘we’…. Evidently Lordgrinz cares otherwise he would not have highlighted where it was a Songthaew or a TukTuk….

& evidently you care enough to respond to that point as to whether it’s worth caring about… 

… Perhaps no one cares whether you care about the point or not…

 

That’s the thing with web forums - the most pointless & inane comments are made…  such as “who cares”…

 

If you didn’t care at all, you wouldn’t not have commented on any of the points in this thread, you’d be busy plebbing away on another topic…

Who's we?    Us that agree that it doesn't matter what the vehicle is called or do you think that I am the only one thinking that.

Oh while we at it you don't have to talk people down you know  we are all the same you don't have to use the INANE comment just keep that for yourself thank you.
