Police Officers Praised for Assisting Drunk Man Found Asleep by the Roadside

Two police officers from Sattahip Police Station have been commended for their kindness, after assisting a heavily intoxicated man who had fallen asleep beside his parked motorcycle on the roadside.

 

At approximately 01:00 on 15th February, a concerned citizen contacted the Sattahip Police radio centre to report a man who appeared to be unconscious in his vehicle near the entrance to the Prince Chumphon Park, Royal Thai Navy, in Sattahip, Chonburi. Fearing for the man’s safety, the caller requested police intervention to prevent any potential accident or criminal incident.

 

In response, two officers, Sergeant Major Phongnapat Chotchuang and Sergeant Major Theeranai Samahathai, who were on motorcycle patrol, were dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, they discovered a decorated motorcycle featuring a large Hello Kitty plush toy attached to the front. The vehicle was parked on the pavement, facing the wrong direction towards Sattahip Market. Nearby, a man, estimated to be around 40 years old, was found sleeping on the pavement. He was later identified as the owner of a local ice delivery business in Sattahip Market.

 

The officers attempted to wake the man, who, upon seeing them, appeared startled. In a comical yet desperate attempt to sober up, he immediately stuffed two inhalers into his nostrils. Despite his intoxicated state, he insisted on riding his motorcycle home, but the officers intervened, fearing he could cause a crash. Instead, they offered to escort him safely. One officer rode the man’s motorcycle while he sat as a passenger, while the other officer followed closely behind. They successfully transported him home, approximately two kilometres away, without incident.


 


Despite his excessive alcohol consumption, the man had at least adhered to the principle of “Don’t drink and drive—park and rest,” preventing any harm to himself or others. However, it was the officers’ commitment to public safety that many said, stood out.

So how did he get to his parked location... levitation?

He rode his motorcycle pissed as a coot until he could no further continue, stopping and collapsing on the road side... so lets let him off ?

He appears to have been able to get the bike up on the stand, even if beyond standing himself!
