Pattaya-area police seized 30 illegally modified motorbikes in a crackdown on street racing.

Any bike found to have any sort of modified part or missing documents and/or license plate was confiscated and the driver arrested.

The crackdown came after rampant complaints from Jomtien residents about late-night street racing.


30 illegally modified motorbikes with either missing documents or license plates were confiscated and the driver arrested.
