Wiroj further stated that the amount of the bribery payment can reach up to 25,000 baht per month, allowing the trucks to surpass weight limits whenever desired, thanks to the presence of the sticker.
In response to Wiroj's claims, the commander of the Highway Police Division, Maj-General Ekkarat Limsangkat, stated that his division is actively investigating the matter and acknowledged their awareness of the existence of such practices.
The police commander said efforts have been made to eliminate these practices but progress has been slow.
He suggested that amending the law to impose stricter penalties on the employers rather than solely on the drivers could address the issue at its root cause.
