The alleged failure to not wear a helmet is not a criminal offence. In fact no crime was alleged. As such, even in Thailand, the police cannot enter and search. The copper should have been more professional and polite. I have a lot of respect for the manager. We all want Thais to take a stand for good government and integrity. Well she did and deserves support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volka Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 On one hand he is on private property and can be asked to leave if no warrant is provided On the other hand he is just following in someone who saw police checkpoint, stopped and ran into 7-11, nothing wrong with following that person in HOWEVER, if this was anywhere in the West, the manager would have been arrested and charged with obstruction or interference I do not think manager was right to interfere, the only thing she could ask and ask nicely is to remove that person outside to deal with the matter, so it does not interfere with the business.

gchurch259 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 There is a time an place for everything, you do not do Traffic Policing in a convenience store, just way until the person comes outside. What the hell it is not a felony to not wear a helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in your expert opinion if this was in US or UK or Oz and one seeng police check point decided to me smart , pull over or uturn and go into a shop, cops would be waiting outside ? And if manager tell them to get out they would oblige ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the hell it is not a felony to not wear a helmet. Have you ever seen all the comedy happening at a police checkpoint against motocy's without helmets?? It's really funny, better than a movie! Half of them doesn't wear a helmet and just escapes one way or the other. Even when the officer has stopped one and holds his arm i 've seen them pull up and escape...Even with a (helmetless) girl on the back. But mostly they just turn around and drive back against traffic or they just steer around the policemen and disappear. Nothing happens, even not when the police are in a group of 8 men trying to stop them. So this policeman chased the guy/girl into the shop to find out that the owner wouldn't coorperate.... And we still don't know the real reason why he wanted to see the id. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digibum Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 I blame his attitude on how tight they make them wear their shirts. Maybe something with a looser fit might make the BiB more friendly and helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is mistrust of the police, nothing new. But these days the BiB are humbled a bit by the military. I sense the boldness of the woman as conveying the message "enough of this police bs." Of all the things he should be looking out for he puts his priority in pursuing someone who violated the helmet law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khundon Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 The cop should be given another medal. The arguing for 7min 57sec with a Thai woman, medal. Oh and a big pay rise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rorri Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 10 hours ago, Thian said: I don't care if it's a he or a she was hiding for the police and what he or she did. Fact is that the police ordered her to do something which she refused. He was investigating something and on duty. I don't see what he did wrong, he was still polite and shouldn't start such long discussions. If he has no right to arrest in a shop then he should leave and tell his boss about it. If he has the right to arrest then just do it, don't let a lady stop you. Your attitude is as bad as the cop's, no wonder you support him. If he detailed why he needed to speak to someone, and was refused he should have contacted his superior, NOT get into an argument, this is where he lost it, the manager remained calm, we see male attitude far too much, as they are brought up as spoilt little brats.

cyberfarang Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 If not careful Thailand can go the same way as England, when the public lose respect for the police and authority. If the person at the back of the shop had nothing to hide then why did not he/she walk out and cooperate with the policeman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is one of many exceptions that exist. In fact if the staff in America had obstructed police in hot pursuit they could be arrested. That being said, all this over the lack of wearing a helmet is a little silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
