Popular Post webfact Posted June 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2021 Picture: INN Thai media INN reported that the Royal Thai Police were offering 3,000 baht rewards to anyone who provides information leading to the arrest of street racers. Video of the miscreants can be uploaded 24 hours on the Facebook Social Media Center of the RTP or you can call 1599 or 191. There has been a crackdown recently with the wrongdoers also facing charges for breaking the emergency decree. Videos of the races are often posted on online platforms. Deputy RTP chief Damrongsak Kittipraphat - in his capacity as the head of a task force cracking down on the races - gave details of three of the latest busts. Picture: INN Most involved youth, confiscation of motorcycles and warnings issued to parents. The first case was May 24th on Suwannasorn Road in Sa Kaeo province where four motorcyclists were arrested by the local police. Two got two months in jail, halved to one month then suspended for six months. Two were going through the youth courts and warnings had been issued to their parents about their offsprings' future conduct. In the second case 3 youth were arrested by the Wang Nam Yen police in Sa Kaeo on May 26th with the parents warned and promises about their future good behavior made. The third case was on the Nakhonburi - Serngsang Road in Nakhon Ratchasima province where nine arrests and the seizure of five bikes was accomplished after the cops filmed the participants in racing and later went to their homes. -- © Copyright Thai Visa News 2021-06-07 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surelynot Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 I would quite happily pay the police 3000 baht if they would do something about the tuk-tuks on our soi with modified (or non-existent) exhausts.......... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Excel Posted June 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2021 (edited) Never mind about the reward, just make it legal for foreigners to own a gun and shoot them. That would provide a permanent solution and be Infinitely more fun for the American gun fanatics who reside here in Thailand and often pop up on this forum . ????????????

Popular Post trainman34014 Posted June 7, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 7, 2021 Out on my Bike this morning and suddenly 15 very loud 'Racers' screamed past me at high speed weaving in and out of traffic. Noticeable that not one had a number plate but they all obviously had a Death Wish. All very well but it's the innocent people who will die as a result of their recklessness and the Police uselessness. Police should not need to offer rewards if they get off their Butt's and do their job properly. Twenty minutes later i passed our local Police Station....Zzzzzzzz as usual ! 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IvorBiggun2 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Quote Age laws. Quote Thai law has clearly stated that all children aged below the age of 7 years cannot be legally punished. Those between 7 and 14 still cannot be punished, but the court may impose behavioural control through probation. Fill yer boots if your under 7. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Should send them to China as I have seen that there are attitude adjustment centers in that country.

canthai55 Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Makes me laugh - all the Old Farts in this topic, who had no life as kids and continue the tradition today. Suit and tie when young, socks with sandals when old ! Jealous of those who get out, grab life by the throat, and hang on ! Life is full of hazards. Get over it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, thinking about when/where to conduct the first meeting which would be to define why the committee was formed, and the date of the next meeting to decide who should attend the meetings, but postponed because of golf dates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starky Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) Yes let's put more people in the filthy, overcrowded, covid ridden prisons who have basically done sweet <deleted> all. What a joke. Take their bikes or confiscate the licenses they probably don't have but let's leave custodial sentences out of it. Probably include the 1000s doing boob for possessing a couple of yaba or smoking a joint. Had to to laugh at one set of charges though 2 months reduced to 1 month suspended for 6 months lol.

mikebell Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 It's not just Thai tearaways. There's a couple of farangs trying to hold back the years by buying look-at-me bikes; exhausts you can hear three miles away; at speeds way over the mooban limit; coming home at 3am!
