An armada of 5 motorcycles led to a huge traffic chaos on Mittraphap Road yesterday. A traffic jam of more than XNUMX kilometers formed in their wake. The motorcyclists were on their way to the Chet Sao Noi waterfall in Saraburi, a destination announced on Facebook on Friday.

According to Wira Bupho of the state police in Saraburi, many motorcycles lacked permits and many drove without helmets. A few drove in the opposite direction, which caused the police following the cordon a lot of headaches. They ran away when the police came close to them. One motorcyclist crashed into a police officer, who was injured as a result. Fifty motorcyclists were thrown on the receipt.

A motorcyclist who goes by the name of Durian Non called on fellow motorcyclists on August 13 on his Facebook page to join a rally to the waterfall.

As a starting point he mentioned a gas station at the Pak Kret intersection in Nonthaburi. A second gathering place was the Bangkok University on Vibhavadi Road. From there, both groups would drive towards the waterfall.

Durian Non wrote that a motorcycle magazine photographer would take pictures of the group at the waterfall with some rented "pretties" for company. [Pretties are young women who are beautiful at trade shows, for example at luxury cars.]

    I am actually curious about the pictures of the moped or scooter riders (they are not motorcyclists!) at the Chet Sao Noi waterfall. Or have the police succeeded in spoiling the fun altogether? I think it's a nice innocent initiative, that trip to the waterfall. But yes, the car is sacred as everywhere. It must not be hindered. So what those cheeky scooter riders do, it can't just be done, can it? Bromsnor has to put a stop to that.
