A badminton hall operator was bewildered to find scuff marks on the floor at the court that looked nothing like those left by trainers or rackets. Confused as to how the marks were appearing on the floor, staff reviewed surveillance footage and were in for a shock. It turns out a group of players had not used the court to play badminton, but to race around the room on their bicycles. They even rode right into the court, and had a blast skidding and drifting around tight curves. After they were caught, the people involved apologized to the badminton hall, which may pursue the incident further for compensation. Let’s hear what people think.

Can’t believe it
That’s really out of order. It’s crazy, and quite thoughtless.

I thought it was ridiculous. They should pay for it. If they damaged, they might have to get the floor redone.

They could face civil liability for damages. Also, since they are minors, their parents would bear joint liability for compensation. If the act is confirmed to have been intentional, it could constitute a criminal offense—property damage.
The badminton hall is located in Kaohsiungs’s Gangshan District. Staff is usually only on duty at the spot after 3 in the afternoon. At all other times, it operates via a self-service payment system. The operator believes that the people racing around the track were part of a group that had rented the courts. They apparently also ignored calls from other people present to stop, and simply continued riding and drifting their bicycles. The operator says it plans to discuss the situation with the inconsiderate bike riders to determine how to handle the situation going forward.
