Pattaya police urged to take action on Kuwaiti street racers - video

[snoop1130]

 

Residents in Soi Yen Sabai, Pattaya, urged police officers to take action against Kuwaiti motorcycle racers following a noise pollution disturbance and a recent physical altercation on Saturday, July 13.

 

A video of the altercation between two groups of Kuwaiti nationals was shared on Thai social media yesterday, July 14, but the incident reportedly took place on Soi Yen Sabai on July 13. The Pattaya News reported that more than 50 Kuwaiti men were involved in the fight.

 

The video showed a motorcycle overturned on the road while two foreign men were arguing. Some joined the altercation while others attempted to stop their friends. The brawling pair appeared to be aged between 16 and 20 years old.

 

The person who recorded the video, and locals in the area, revealed to the media that Kuwaiti street racers ride their motorcycles along the alley all day, blocking other motorists from using the road. Some of them rev their engines late at night, preventing locals from resting.

 

 

Residents in the area urged news agencies to spread the story to draw the attention of the police and government officials to find a solution to the issue.

 

This is not the first time that foreign racers have caused chaos in Soi Yen Sabai. In July last year, motorcycle racers, reported to be of Arab descent, caused a loud disturbance with their motorcycle engines and horns both day and night.

 

Police officers later arrested them and confiscated 15 motorcycles from the foreign racers.

 

The issue did not end there as another group of Kuwaiti street racers took over Soi Yen Sabai again in August of that year, causing an accident involving a Thai motorist. A Thai man attempted to claim compensation from the Kuwaiti rider but he refused to pay and fled the scene.

Well the insurance is the responsibility of the guy renting out.. but I doubt these guys have motorcycle licences, and as we see ride around without helmets.

some naughty person 'vaping' also.

The rental shops are the source of the problem. If they refuse to check for licences etc, the police should impound the bikes and fine the shops and hirers.

 

But we all know why this simple solution will not be implemented.

Boot the clowns in the jail for a few days on the way out of the country

1st you need a police force.

[sikishrory]

That's strange. Wheres the 10 moto taxi guys appearing out of nowhere for this one. I guess they only come out when it is 10 of them vs 2.

What nationality are the 'Residents'?

[cowellandrew]

From the video I heard that there was lots of lizards around and that they should go home!

 

😁😬😂🐷☻😳🙈🚀

When I read that there were 50 involved I was expecting a riot. From the video it looks like handbags at 10 paces from a couple of kids.

Perhaps owing to inbreeding, as in the UK.

 

Study shows rate of extreme inbreeding in the U.K. and possible health impacts of it

 

Accounts for Brits all looking alike as well. Same old checked, collar shirt from East End Thrift hanging over a fat belly, cargo shorts to hold bits & bobs, white socks & sandals.

So you think a study that comes up with a rate of 0.02% accounts for "Brits all looking alike"?

 

What's responsible for your own particular ignorance?

Well, it just seems the .02% end in up Thailand, like the Kuwaitis I guess.

That should be no surprise. Arab countries display some of the highest rates of consanguineous marriages in the world and Kuwait has a very small indigenous population. They are probably all interrelated.
