An orange taxi yesterday was seen transporting a motorcycle in its back seat, with a door hanging wide open, driving down Rama II Road in Bangkok. This incident, which took place yesterday, September 24, sparked significant online criticism due to safety concerns.

 

A viral video captured by a passerby revealed an orange taxi with its left door ajar, carrying a motorcycle that extended out of the vehicle. The footage, shared by the Facebook page อยากดังเดี๋ยวจัดให้ รีเทิร์น part 7, highlighted the potentially dangerous situation on Rama II Road.

 

The post questioned, “Do you consider the safety of your life and the property of others using public roads?”

 

As the taxi continued to drive down the middle of the road, netizens expressed their outrage and concern over the apparent disregard for road safety. The motorcycle’s protrusion from the taxi made the situation particularly alarming for other road users.

The incident has raised broader questions about road safety standards and enforcement in the city. Many users called for stricter regulations and penalties for such reckless behaviour.

 

“We need more stringent laws to prevent such incidents. It’s not just about the driver; it’s about everyone’s safety.”

 

Others suggested that the taxi driver might have been in a desperate situation, attempting to transport the motorcycle without considering the risks involved. Despite this, the consensus remained that safety should never be compromised.

 

The viral video has prompted discussions among social media users about the importance of adhering to road safety rules. Some individuals shared their own experiences with similar situations, highlighting the need for increased awareness and caution on the roads, reported KhaoSod.
