Gen Montree certainly got a sense of humour, before they have any chance of stopping street racers, they will need someone ring the bell wake the lazy police up.

And yet, the police HAVE been doing their job recently, even if it's for the first time ever. Do give them some credit.

Steamrolling exhausts is a common public show of "action". It has tradition.

 

Here the same steamrolling from a year and a half ago:

 

Here from as early as 2012:

I remember  the roar ( along with the smell and  smog) of the 2 strokers  at every green light in BKK

back in 1997, they have been talking about rounding up the "dek weans"  since then and no doubt well before then...if anything there seems to be even more very high powered  "superbikes" modified pickup trucks

@ 300 +++ HP, Lamborghini,Ferrari,Porsche roaring around these days.

ends up with a flat tone

We hear you talk the talk, let's see you walk the walk! 

[PETERTHEEATER 2,478]

Why not crush the bikes, exhausts and all. (Wishful thinking, only joking)

[Khun Paul 1,394]

Should have crushed all motorbikes, far easier and works better.

Looks like they all losing their minds...

I totally agree that it should be stopped but give them somewhere to race and play . This country has nothing for youngsters to do ,nothing for kids either.

where I live they took all the swings and slides away 2 years ago , before they had some with concrete floor but for the old they had Exercise equipment with rubber floors , perhaps it’s because kids and youths can’t vote or sell their vote
