A foreign man who appeared intoxicated walked into moving traffic on Srisunthorn Road in Thalang on May 20, creating a dangerous situation that quickly drew attention in Phuket. The man was seen moving back and forth in the roadway and approaching passing vehicles, forcing drivers to slow to avoid hitting him.
Video shows repeated movement in front of cars
Footage shared online showed the man repeatedly stepping in front of vehicles rather than remaining at the roadside.
He also moved toward passing cars in active traffic, increasing the risk of a collision on one of the district’s main roads.
The behaviour disrupted the normal flow of vehicles and left motorists reacting suddenly to avoid contact.
Social media backlash prompts calls for action
The video triggered strong backlash on social media, where commenters voiced concern that the incident could have caused a serious crash.
Much of the criticism focused on the danger posed to other road users and on what commenters described as reckless conduct.
The reaction also widened into broader concern over unsafe behaviour by some foreign tourists in the area.
Multiple parties are now calling on relevant agencies to investigate the incident and strengthen safety measures after observing similar risks on local roads.
