According to Reuters (and I think we all know how painfully unreliable that can be...):
"Thailand's latest army putsch looked more like coup-lite on Wednesday with no violence and foreign tourists seemingly oblivious to the troops and tanks roaming the streets of Bangkok...
Tanks and armoured vehicles swiftly took up positions at key points across the city, while television stations broadcast a brief statement declaring martial law and apologising "for any inconvenience"...
Bangkok's notorious traffic was still flowing despite monsoon rains and military checkpoints. Some curious motorists stopped to get a better look at the country's 18th coup since it became a constitutional monarchy in 1932."
