Malaysian trio fined for filming car stunts in Hat Yai

Three Malaysian tourists and a Thai national were fined a combined total of 12,000 baht for obstructing traffic and filming a video for social media in Hat Yai after midnight. The incident involved a black car leading a convoy of three Malaysian-registered vehicles, painted blue, red, and white. The group made multiple U-turns, revved their engines loudly, and caused significant traffic disruptions.

According to police lieutenant Prut Pattanapran, the actions of the group angered local residents, as the video of the incident quickly spread across social media platforms. All four drivers admitted to their guilt and paid fines amounting to 4,000 baht each before being released on Sunday. Police advised foreign tourists to familiarize themselves with and adhere to Thai laws during their stay to avoid breaking the law.
