Give them a bunch of bananas and send them on their way

[WitawatWatawit]

Mummyyyy! Help me. The nasty police are spoiling my fun!

[fritzzz25]

I wonder if PDN will get sued for calling him an "idiot" in the headline?

[JesseFrank]

The police officers then asked Mr.Lertwarit’s friends to search their cars but one of who was driving a mini cooper quickly fled the police station. The police officers inspected a Mercedes Benz car and they found out that the license plate didn’t match the car. The car owner claimed that he had just changed the license plate and registration and it was in process of being changed before also fled the from the police station.

 

We gonna search the cars, if there is anything illegal, you have 5 minutes to flee.

 

So when they found the Benz being not compliant with the law they gave him a second chance to flee.

[HiSoLowSoNoSo]

It would be nice if they could jail rich spoiled HiSo kids like this guy and his friends together with normal prisoners, 30 sharing a small cell, taking turns sleeping because the floor space is not enough for them all. Maybe then they could learn something, but I doubt it.

One more case of spoiled Thai kids ..irresponsible behavior. ..i hope that they get more than a slap on the wrist for this caper.

[howzat]

No different to other countries. Check out Rod Stuart's son for example. Spoilt rich kids that never done a days work in their lives same everywhere.

[peterdarby]

Confiscated his car… is that permanently?

[alocacoc]

Please Dear Police Officers. Come at night to Treppasit Road Jomtien. Here you will find many idiot racers.

Perhaps there is more to the story. He could have been tested and found under the influence, his license (if he had one............. ) could be invalidated by a previous charge, etc, etc.

 

Or maybe the police just liked the colour.............

 

Without all the facts, who knows.

[clockman]

As with anything in Thailand. We will never know the true story.

[Deacon Bell]

That copper must really want a transfer to another station.

 

 

Let's hope he gets it before he resorts to shooting someone.

Probably the most significant impact will be loss of face with naming the mother, her company and having his picture in the news and on internet.  Expect this is why they tried to get photos deleted.  Called useless friends to come help and they almost get busted themselves.  Good to see police scare them off and continue with booking this guy.  Should get an earful from mommy.  Hope he will not drive fast down Beach Road in the future.

Millionaire's Son Arrested For Street Car Racing

 

CHONBURI — Police have arrested the son of a prominent businessman for racing a sports car with friends yesterday morning in Pattaya, a popular resort town south of Bangkok.

 

Police intercepted the car, a Nissan GTR 35, after it was seen racing at a high speed along a beachfront road in Pattaya at around 2 am on Saturday. 

 

The driver was identified as Lertvarit Lertvorapreecha, 20, the eldest son of Degree Lighting Store owner Sirin Lertvorapreecha. The police escorted Mr. Lertvarit to Muang Pattaya Police Station for further investigation and confiscated his car as evidence.

 

Shortly after Mr. Lertvarit was arrested, his friends arrived at the police station and demanded police release Mr. Lertvarit from custody. When police refused, some members of the group turned to reporters and berated them for taking photos of Mr. Lertvarit.

 

One of the suspect's friends also demanded a reporter delete his photos, leading to a round of argument. 

Police later checked the license plates the friends' vehicles and discovered that one of them had a fake plate. The driver claimed he recently changed his license plate and has already applied for a new registration. The group then immediately fled the police station without Mr. Lertvarit.

 

Police charged Mr. Lertvarit with reckless driving and released him on a 20,000 baht bail. 

 

Pol.Col. Suphatee Boonkrong, the commander of Muang Pattaya Police, said Mr. Lertvarit's friends phoned several "influential figures" and threatened him to drop the charges against the suspect.

 

"We didn't care and pressed charges anyway," Pol.Col. Suphatee said.

 

Mr. Lertvarit is said to have recently graduated from a British university. He has made headlines in celebrity news by announcing that he is dating the famous Thai actress Marie Broenner. His family business is one of the leading interior decoration companies in Thailand. 

 

Several cases of reckless driving by the children of wealthy Thais have made headlines in recent years.

 

In December 2011, Orachorn "Praewa" Thephasadin Na Ayudhya, a 17-year-old heiress to a prominent family, was driving without a license on a tollway in a Bangkok suburb when she crashed her car into a public minivan and killed nine people. 

 

She was given a suspended sentence of three years in prison and required to participate in community service for 48 hours.

 

Less than a year later, Vorayuth Yoovidhya, heir of the famous Red Bull energy drink fortune, killed a police officer with his Ferrari near a nightlife district in Bangkok. Mr. Vorayuth fled to Singapore shortly after the incident and has been living abroad ever since.

How can these people live with themselves killing innocent people due to there childish and irresponsible behaviour, I would not be able to sleep at night, and I would be full of remorse...

But that's me....

[Borzandy]

"Young Idiot Caught Driving At High Speed Down Pattaya Beach Road" like everyday.

[kamahele]

I like the description "young idiot".

[klauskunkel]

"Don't you know who I am?!? I'm the son of the Lighting Store Owner!"

"I don't care. I am the son of the Noodle Stall Owner, and I arrest you anyway!"

I agree!  but this is their culture and how many Thais act even without money?  Their kids are raised in this manner because they know no other way it is monkey see monkey do!  This is not the first time nor will it be the last that this kids does something like this?  Black Nissan?  for some reason I remember a few days ago this same vehicle flying up Siam Country Road towards Sukhumvit passing even when it was barely possible basically using his vehicle as a weapon to force people off the road which is a common practice here.  

 

Action like this is due to lack of consistence enforcement and lack of accountability. I'm not into lawyers but until there is a huge price to pay for actions like this it will never stop.  If he kills someone just pay the family 300,000 baht and off he goes to do it all over again. The more they have the more they pay to get off.  

 

The reason this kid acts the way he does is because of the MOTHER AND FATHER!  they need to look no further!

 

As for the Red Bull guy,, did it ever dawn on the judge to confiscate the kids passport since he had the means to flee?  The system is the problem or lack of?

I think they  (rich idiots) figure the injured parties must have done something in a past life to merit being hit by their car in this life. So" not my problem".

Just a precious few nights as his cellmates girlfriend, and he would be a changed man. He would have a "larger" perspective on life. He would quite possibly not have the sense of entitlement, and feeling of being above the law that he and his goomba friends currently have. Something about mommy always being there to bail out her very special boy prevents a man child from ever establishing perspective on life. These kids are sucking alot of oxygen, but I am not sure if they are contributing much to society.
