A video showing foreign motorcyclists performing dangerous stunts at a shopping mall in Phuket has incited online outrage. The clip, captured at Robinson Chalong in Muang district, features riders using the car park as a racetrack, executing risky maneuvers such as wheelies and speeding, which raised safety concerns for nearby vehicles and pedestrians.

The footage, shared on a local Facebook page, described the scene as "street racing" and highlighted the disturbance caused by loud engine noises. With the video going viral, many residents expressed frustration over perceived inaction by authorities, questioning the effectiveness of law enforcement in managing such repeated incidents.

The online backlash led to calls for stricter measures and penalties to prevent similar events. Some community members urged local officials to respond decisively to enhance public safety and maintain order.

Authorities have yet to announce any action against those involved, though further investigation is anticipated. The demand for stronger enforcement continues as the community awaits official responses.

"...when it are foreigners everything is dangerous...'

"enforce the laws, as long as it are not the netizens"

More unjustified nonsense from your Thai-bash g keyboard.

Nothing new, many of the pickup adverts on TV seem to glorify reckless speeding and the toughness of the vehicle.

Another day another outrage.
