PATTAYA: -- A Belgian was lucky to escape prosecution in the early hours of Tuesday after he drove his high-powered motorbike into parked bikes and a pick-up causing damage to each of the vehicles involved.

Police were called to the incident at the intersection with Soi Neun Plub Wan on the railroad running along the East-side of Pattaya, just before 2.30am. The Belgian, who refused to give his name, was driving a Honda Forza 300 motorbike and was seen to be driving at a very high rate of speed when he collided with the parked-vehicles.

If you read the full report you will see.

"A deal was struck where the man agreed to pay for all the damage caused to the parked vehicles, instead of being arrested for drunk-driving."

As for the other points you raise, I too have not got a clue how the other information/non-information was gleaned, or not as the case may be.

Quite extraordinary.

In any civilised country the prat would have had to pay for all the damage and he would have been arrested, prosecuted and fined, and possibly given a jail sentence and had his licence suspended. And quite rightly too. I dont want idiots like that on the same roads that I use.

No breathalyzer? A deal? Kind of makes the holiday edicts null and void.

Yes, indeed. However the holiday period is now officially over so the only conclusion I can draw from this is that it is ok to drink drive now. Also the police perhaps do not want the hassle of confiscating and impounding damaged vehicles, lambaak

I like living here but I don't wear 'rose tinted' glasses. There was supposed to be a change in the way police dealt with drunk drivers, but it appears that 'crackdown' only lasted for a week. If you think it's OK for drunk drivers to be able to remain on the roads by avoiding severe fines/bans, that's up to you. However,don't expect much sympathy (from me) if you just happen to be a victim of one of these delinquent drivers in the future.

...how did they establish that he was drunk...or was that 'a given'....

No sober man would ride a Forza.

Refused to give his name...so presumably had no ID on him ?

Must have been really financially rewarding for the lucky BIB who attended this incident !

He's probably wanted back home, Pattaya is like a magnet to all sorts of low lifes.

I reckon i could drive or ride better than any local Thai.

After drinking 10 beers , 15 vodka , 14 glass of Mont Clare. one bottle of Samsong

and one hand tied behind my back and talking on a mobile phone.

peace of cake if i wanted to.

Thais are the worst drivers / riders in the world. bah.gif

Shame this Belgium nut let us down.
