Hej
Bara 4 passagerare på flaket under Songkran kommer att tillåtas.
RTP chief says people WILL be allowed to ride in the back of pick-ups at Songkran 2023 - but only FOUR!
Thai Rath reported on comments made by the chief of the Royal Thai Police Pol Gen Damrongsak Kittipraphat yesterday regarding the election and the Songkran holidays.
It will be the chief's first Songkran in charge next month and he has addressed a perennial concern - the public riding dangerously in the back of pick-ups.
Each year sometimes a dozen or more people ride in the back of the vehicles splashing water amd the mayhem that is the traditional Thai New Year holidays.
Pre-pandemic a ban was ordered, but the RTP in their infinite wisdom decided not to do anything about it, notes ASEAN NOW.
This year as Covid has been declared endemic and many people are expected to return to their homes upcountry Damrongsak addressed the situation.
He said that a meeting had been held and it was decided to allow people to ride in the back of pick-ups.
But only four at a time.
They would also have to stick to the left and not hog the right lane by barriers.
