Georgealbert Posted Saturday at 10:09 PM Posted Saturday at 10:09 PM Picture courtesy of Daily News. Social media users have expressed outrage after video clips emerged showing a foreign man performing dangerous motorcycle stunts on the busy streets of Pattaya. The footage, which has since gone viral, has sparked calls for immediate police action. In the first video, the foreign rider is seen engaging in a casual conversation at a red light with the person filming, apparently asking about their motorcycle model. As the traffic light turns green at a busy Pattaya North intersection, the man accelerates and immediately performs a wheelie, lifting the front wheel off the ground and speeding ahead through thick traffic. A second video, believed to have been filmed shortly afterwards, shows the same man riding along Jomtien Beach Road. Despite there being fewer people in the area at the time, he once again performs the same risky wheelie stunt, showing a blatant disregard for public safety. Both clips have drawn widespread condemnation online, with viewers slamming the rider’s reckless behaviour. Many social media users have labelled his actions as selfish and dangerous, warning that such stunts could lead to serious incidents. Critics have also questioned the apparent lack of police response, tagging law enforcement in posts and urging authorities to identify and prosecute the individual before any harm is done. Authorities have not yet confirmed whether any investigation has been launched, but pressure is mounting as the videos continue to circulate widely. Members of the public are demanding a swift and firm legal response to deter similar behaviour in the future. Adapted by Asean Now from Daily News 2025-06-15 4 6

ikke1959 Posted Saturday at 11:02 PM Posted Saturday at 11:02 PM Sad that the public have to call the RTP for action... They should do their job 24 hrs a day instead of 9 to 5 ... I am almost never any policeman anywhere.. Sometimes driving 1 on motorcycle and sometimes a lot at a checkpoint for tax payments, but around Phetkasem road never, or in the city never....When do they work actually?? 2 4

At night, I was exiting Jomtien Soi-5, turning left onto Beach Rd. I looked right but no headlights approaching so pulled out---VROOOM!!! A large motorcycle in full wheelie mode at high speed missed me by inches! Because the bike was pointed skywards, the headlight hadn't been visible. He continued down Beach rd, holding the wheelie until out of sight. I had to stop and gather myself...hands shaking. Too close for comfort.

Some people shouldn't do any drugs, as they might already be unstable. Marijuana is, and has been everywhere. People who are aggressive are that way anyway, it's just suppressed sometimes, and some drugs like speed, meth, yaba, and alcohol can add to it and bring it out. I , along with most everyone I know, has done it and still, and never have they become aggressive or dangerous. Jamaica and other places have a lot of corruption and instability, gangs who are doing the criminal activity, but blaming marijuana isn't valid. They're already that way. 3 1 1

If you don't allow dopeheads to come in, what do you do about the multitude that are already there? What ruins holiday destinations is organized criminal activity, brought on by profit. Human trafficking, drug smuggling of all kinds, prostitution, all reasons holiday destinations are changed, along with some officials bribed to look the other way. 1 1
