PATTAYA - A Russian driver was fined 500 baht for covering his car with strings of small Christmas lights.

Traffic police spotted and stopped his colourfully lit sedan on Sukhumvit road in Chon Buri.

The 25-year-old Russian driver, who gave his name as Ivanov, explained that he was unaware it was against the law. He had seen other cars in Bangkok that were similarly decorated. He just wanted to celebrate the Christmas-New Year festival.

Police said they explained the law to him and fined him 500 baht.

Festive lighting can confuse other drivers and distract them from the car's direction indicators, according to a warning issued by the national police chief, Pol Gen Kittharath Punpetch.
