Urinating Brits visit Pattaya Police station following viral Facebook video



PATTAYA: -- Two British Nationals, one from Scotland and the other from the North of England, presented themselves at Pattaya Police Station on Monday afternoon to explain why a viral Facebook video showed them urinating on the street in broad daylight.

The video was shot on 12th September and went viral on various Pattaya-related Facebook channels. Hundreds of angry comments, mostly from Thai’s, accompanied the video, which was shot by a Thai woman, who witnessed the public urination on Pattaya Beach Road in front of Soi 12.

The pair had been taken there by a private-hire Taxi and both claimed to be intoxicated. They later told Police Colonel Sukthat at Pattaya Police Station that they were not aware that urinating in a public place would cause so much offense.

This woman could follow a few motorbike taxi drivers around who do this sober! (or are they?)

Two wrongs dont make a right, totally unacceptable, they are the guests.

The problem seems to be the thinking that says it's OK to urinate in the street in the UK (or have sex or anything else it seems) so it must be OK here, what's wrong with that picture!

[slipperylobster]

seen hundreds of thais doing the same thing.

No they are not...they are Burmese lol

[chiang mai]

From the video it appears the guy urinated right outside the woman's shop/stall, I've certainly never seen any Asian doing that.

[kotsak]

Never seen a brown envelope arranged into a bouquet

[DD13]

They should be thrown out of Thailand and have their passports stamped "never" to be allowed back

The "Jocks" behaviour doesn't surprise me, you only have to look at him to see what kind of creature he is.......and he would be better keeping that excuse of a "penis" out of sight......that proves what a small brained "<deleted>" he is....

It is little wonder that people think we Brits are ALL problem makers with baffoons like this breathing Gods air

Clear off you "Low Lifes" you are not wanted here (or anywhere for that matter)

[Ling Kae]

I have seen hundreds upon hundreds of Thai guys urinating anywhere they basically feel the need to go, not a single mention of that. What if it was one of the mafia guys off the beach? Bet she would have shut her mouth and crawled back into her shop if that had happened.

[craigt3365]

I've never seen a Thai pee right in front of a business like that before. Nearby, in the bushes or on a wall...yes. But not like that. Pretty disgusting. I'd bet doing the same thing in their home country would get them a ticket.

Not in daytime..so much. I bet if you find a group of tuk tuks parked, and waiting for customers, you will see much of this. Generally a bit more discreet. I have to admit, there has been times when we had to pull over and I would take a leak (both side doors providing cover).

I never ran after a thai with my cell phone camera, trying to report a leak outside...so I cannot provide proof.

Actually you do not see it much in the UK, relative to Thailand and a few other European countries. But I believe there is some ancient British law that permits urination on the back fender of a taxi-cab. Perhaps that just applies to the horse.

Rather shameful behaviour and they appear to have learned some lesson from their drunken antics.

Afraid it goes a little further than just the Brits and a very good example of some of the things that ALL farangs end up being reputed for.

Before throwing them out, should be shot after publicly pissed on, near the same it looks like almost did to the lady.

The flowers are simply a facetious gesture that adds to it, but worse because presumably being drunk and having to piss is no excuse for the attitude,

Perhaps they should have installed public toilets during their beach improvement program?

[diehard60]

Yea know i see Thai geeing anywhere they want to and not ONE Thai will say anything. But a foreigner does it and the Thai community goes nuts. Granted what these 2 idiots did was not good coming from Great Britain where I know it is against the law.

[quandow]

I have reached that age where sometimes not peeing is NOT an option. Not a lot of public toilets on the roads I travel. The DIFFERENCE is that I do it discreetly and don't take a video to post on social media.

Those guys are ambassadors of their countries and deserve to be shamed. Grow up, kids.

[2fishin2]

The power of social media has gone beserkers....

One wrong doesn't make a right either. Don't be racist.

[glaswegian]

shame on ya, ye dobber heid cnuts!!! deport thaim both to where they belang to, westministerland and scumland

[BKKSnowBird]

Maybe they should rethink charging you 10 baht to use a nasty toilet.

[craigt3365]

Some are quite bad, but I've never had a restaurant refuse me if you ask very politely to use the toilet. And maybe if you are not massively drunk! LOL

Dumb & Dumber

[Rimmer]

A video of one of the guys in action has been removed, please do not repost it, thank you.

[optad]

We have all done it, just with more temperance and consideration to the act and location. Those pictures are not mindful of anything positive or concessionary.

Being drunk is no excuse for anything and the the notion that there is license to do anything on holiday/in Thailand is the root problem. It is immature, disrespectful , and indicative of poor socialization. bigger issues for those two men generally.

[jaywalker]

I cannot recall the number of times, (usually at night thank heavens) when the som-tam got to me.

Just pull over on the side of the road & do a runner for the nearest bushes.

I quit eating som-tam, as I couldn't afford the Imodium bill.

[onemorechang]

Funny they point out one guy from Scotland and one from the North of England

Quality Tourists

I agree.

At least they publicly apologized. If I were that cop accepting the flowers though I'd be wondering what they got watered with last.
