In Bangkok's Phaya Thai district, police have launched a vigorous crackdown on illegal parking and unlicensed foreign drivers to enhance public safety and traffic order.

 

Spearheaded by Phaya Thai Police Station’s superintendent, Watcharawee Thammasema, and traffic inspector Jumphon Yenpathomkul, the initiative involves 10 officers enforcing stricter measures at the busy Phaya Thai intersection.

 

The focus is twofold: tackling vehicles encroaching footpaths and ensuring foreign nationals possess valid driving licences. The operation emphasises strict adherence to traffic laws, with non-compliance resulting in fines or imprisonment, highlighting the gravity of these violations.

 

Over the past days, officers have actively monitored parking behaviours, urging drivers to respect designated zones. This effort aims to reduce congestion and improve pedestrian safety by keeping pathways clear.

 

Additionally, traffic police are scrutinising unlicensed foreign drivers, reinforcing the necessity of legal compliance for all.

 

By reducing illegal parking and ensuring all drivers are licensed, the crackdown hopes to smooth traffic flow and secure pedestrian spaces, fostering a more organised urban environment in this bustling district.

Nice idea, but I fear that licenced drivers are just as dangerous as the unlicenced.  That isn't really what they should be focussing on.
