Teen Beaten After Politely Warning Driver About Forgotten Turn Signal

A 15-year-old boy was assaulted after his friend courteously reminded another motorcyclist that he had forgotten to turn off his turn signal. The other party became enraged, ordered them to pull over, and then attacked them with a group of friends, leaving the teenager injured. Police are actively tracking down the perpetrators to press charges.

At 3:20 a.m. on August 6, 2025, a Facebook user posted video of the incident, describing how his son was punched simply for pointing out the forgotten turn signal in Pattaya.

The victim, identified as Mr. A (alias), 15 years old, explained that he was riding as a passenger with a friend when they encountered the other party on Pattaya Sai Sam Road. His friend, who was driving, politely told the other motorcyclist, "Brother, you forgot to turn off your turn signal."

Shortly after, the other party caught up, told them to pull over, and an argument ensued. Another friend of the perpetrator then arrived and, without understanding the situation, began punching the victim and his friend until their motorcycle fell over.

After the assault, the perpetrators fled on their motorcycles. The victim then filed a police report for assistance.

Police have documented the incident as evidence and coordinated with the investigation unit to track down the perpetrators for legal prosecution.
