Did you write for Penthouse or Ribald. I can read and feel that your mind totally enjoys this perverted sex?

Perverted sex ... thanks for chuckle

I read this line from a prior comment, "Who were they actually hurting ? No one."

Well to that person I retort. Imagine parents sitting in a tuk tuk behind the brothel tuk tuk and have young children with them. Would you not agree it is definitely not good for family tourism as the Thai Tourist Dept. keeps trying to make us believe it's a family friendly place?

When they say that I keep thinking they are pulling my middle leg!

I guess if offensive, they could pass, or take their foot off the gas. Not sure a whole lot of kids in the back seat are looking out the front windshield or care what's happening in the tuk tuk in front of them, if, even noticing.

Agree not the smartest thing they decided to do, but not something that will scar anyone. Most kids already saw, maybe by choice, the same on their phones.

Youngins, probably wouldn't even know what they're looking at. Older kids are probably thinking ... 'damn, can't wait, lucky bastards'

You could always move to Indonesia, maybe watch a good public lashing if you want to feel better.

The following motorist seems to think it better to post this sort of thing on social media than report it to the police. This seems to be the normal reaction by 21st century "Netizens" making them just as complicit..

My second wife was from Java and I lived their with her for a short period. I can assure you being a Muslim country and these two fouls did what they did here in Jakara would be spending a long time in jail!

Many instance of tourists disrespecting Thailand. I think Thailand has to look at itself and start from there. Maybe start from their police?

If they did this in their home countries, they could be arrested, thrown in jail for months or years, and permanently labelled as a sex offender.

Phuket - one of Thailands hubs for sex tourists and prostitutes!

That depends on the country. More like a misdemeanor citation, and small fine, in most 1st world (non Muslim) countries, unless circumstances require it to be felony.

Don't think there's enough beds in prison to jail all the consenting adults caught having sex in public view. Or people even bothering to report it, or PoPo willing to write a citation. They really do have better things to do.

How do know they don't. I use to enjoy having fun outside the house, at times, many places, whether local, and especially when O&A. Present wife not into it, so no need to ask.

And no, sex in the back of a tuk tuk, taxi, that's not happening.

Always tried to be incognito, but suspect, not always completely out of view, though surely any voyeurist would have to make an effect for a peek, or not. CCTV probably slowed down a lot of that, though not much 25 yrs ago.

Surfside was always a good place at night. Mountain trail, riverside, or on a lake or stream, at waterfalls. You get the idea, outdoor sex is great, something about it, especially if a very light breeze, just adds to it. Life is to be lived.

More concern should be about safety than being seen, but, never a problem with us gun toting sex addicts.

First wife gave me a BJ on a Beech99, unplanned and unexpected, by me anyway. Wondered why she wanted to sit in last row. Fairly empty flight.

I knew after you mentioned the breeze, you weren't making it up. I used to say it wasn't spring until you had sex in the great outdoors, but public transit was never my thing.

I doubt that very much. I was parked in the golf course car park getting my evil way with a young lady when a copper tapped on the car window and told me to take my lusty behaviour elsewhere.

I have enjoyed outdoor sex in several countries, my own country and many times in Thailand, and not seen the inside of a jail cell!! Baseless notions :)

This could become a tourist attraction once ToT have finished paving Patong Hill with cobble stones.

Not my thing either, though I certainly didn't stop the ex, but that was a one off, and actually got away with it, without notice, even though a rather small plane.

I don't think anyone approves of what they did in the vid, in a tuk tuk, but the outrage is a bit OTT. Not even worth a mention in the 21st century, at a tourist destination. Just being in an exotic location motivates people to have sex outdoors.

But a Tuk tuk ... really bad choice, Hit the beach after the witching hour.

Foreign tourists have been filmed engaging in sexual activity inside a tuk-tuk while travelling over Patong Hill in Phuket, prompting widespread criticism online and raising questions about public decency and the island’s image. The incident occurred on the night of 29 January and was captured by a motorist’s dash-cam travelling behind the vehicle. Images later circulated widely on social media, drawing strong reactions from the public.

Images from that footage was shared on 30 January by the Facebook page Phuket Times, which described the incident as involving a foreign couple who removed their clothes and engaged in sexual activity during the journey. According to the post, the couple appeared unconcerned about being seen by the tuk-tuk driver or other road users while crossing Patong Hill in Patong subdistrict, Kathu district, Phuket.

The post included commentary stating that the behaviour escalated during the journey, culminating in explicit sexual activity inside the moving vehicle. The location was identified as a public road commonly used by residents and tourists alike. The incident quickly spread across social media platforms after being reposted in the comments section of the original Facebook post.

Online reaction was swift and divided, with many users condemning the behaviour as inappropriate and damaging to Phuket’s reputation. Some comments took a sarcastic or humorous tone, while others questioned why such behaviour should be tolerated in a public space. Several users raised concerns about the legal implications of engaging in sexual acts in public and whether existing laws were being adequately enforced.

Others focused on the position of the tuk-tuk driver, questioning whether the driver should bear any responsibility or whether they were simply an unwilling witness. The incident added to ongoing public debate about tourist conduct in Phuket and the challenges of balancing an open tourism environment with respect for local norms and laws. No official statement from local authorities had been reported at the time of publication.

It remains unclear whether police or local officials will pursue an investigation or identify those involved in the incident. The case has nonetheless renewed calls from some members of the public for clearer enforcement of public order regulations.

Key Takeaways

• A foreign couple was filmed engaging in sexual activity inside a tuk-tuk on Patong Hill on 29 January.

• Images of the incident were shared by Phuket Times on Facebook on 30 January and spread rapidly online.

• Public reaction ranged from criticism and concern over legality to sarcastic commentary on tourist behaviour.

There is only one way to restrict this: harsher penalties!

Don't try this in Aceh.

...i bet the driver had his hand firmly on his stick-shift, changing up and down vigorously.

Looks like a SongTaew to me!

Behavior like this will not stop unless Thailand clamps down on disrespectful tourists. Hugh fine and banded for many years.

Thailand is considered by the world to be the largest brothel in Asia. So it's no wonder that foreign visitors think they can afford to do everything they would never do in their home country.
Far from home, far from any morality and decency.

More than PI?

12 years ago to avoid conscription in a certain conflict half a million people of a certain nationality moved into Phuket.

Some are relatively normal, some are exhibitionists (like this couple) some are downright animals (see vid of guy hanging wiener out and peeing whilst walking down Bangla, splashing his own legs and feet).

The sooner that half a million becomes 50,000, the better. Hopefully they take their cars with them.

I have a feeling that sex in a tuk tuk is doing the rounds among Russians as a thing to do while on holiday in Thailand.

Yet to be proven that these are Russians of course…..but if I had to lay a bet, that’s where my money would go

Germans. Go to an FKK in the summer

Phuket's reputation. What a joke. Whahaha🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

True, some idiots ride motorbikes, and I have seem some farangs riding motorbikes with their young kids on their lap, having sex in a tuk tuk is nothing compared to that sort of stupidity.

What utter nonsense, half a million, try and check simple logic before you write such nonsense.

The population of Phuket is about 400,000 in total and the vast majority are Thais.

Idiots believed anything they read on the internet or see on ArseBook etc.
