Pattaya traffic police were busy writing tickets for illegally parked cars on Saturday evening as their owners were sitting and eating on the sand close enough to see them do so.

Despite two-meter no-parking signs, people continue to park on the wrong side of Beach Road.
Police had a field day March 11 writing tickets for motorists who ignored or somehow didn’t see the signs along the seaside half of Beach Road.

Parking was outlawed on the western side of the street on March 1 after being allowed for the past two years.



More than 30 vehicles were spotted parking illegally between the Dusit Curve and Soi 5 on Saturday. Most belonged to Thai tourists sitting and eating on the sand close enough to see cops writing them tickets.

Police also used loudspeakers in a futile effort to get people to move their vehicles.


Despite two-meter no-parking signs, people flout the law and continue to park on the wrong side of Beach Road.
