About a car? Does not make any sense.

Tourism ministry may blame him after his foreigner hunts. Fair enough ????

No shooting guns in the air? That's probably under the assumption, the general solves the pollution within his set 7 days ????. Great stuff!

I thought the fine was 1,600B?

It was never 1600, that's just what Chiang Mai immigration charges. Fine was always 2000B, in case of imprisonment. Go figure ????

I travel abroad every year ...retirement Visa...never have to report until 90 days after my arrival just in case I did try to report to jomtien I 24 hour arrived but was sent away told to come back in 99 day...which I did. It took me 90 seconds brilliant service

Well, in Chiang Mai they would have charged you 1600B regardless, and in the future 10000B if this new plan goes through.

The same is going to happen should you move from Chonburi to Chiang Mai. They will probably laugh at you when you tell them about that radio show and that you were told "no need, come back later". Go figure.

Hope the Chinese join the party too and get rid of the American wannabe Gods.

Ridiculous carry on baggage sizes now, only 40x30x20 cm. Do they really check this now to make small extra money?

So still nobody can answer my simple questions. Instead we start now talking about criminal lawyers. Great shit ????

@Coremouse This is not a 3rd class insurance you are talking about. But thanks, you are the closest so far to the topic.

^^^ Just go and buy the bare minimum.

We will wait until you post of the effects - and cost - of riding / driving with such coverage.

Just like lawyers - no one likes them, until they need one, and nothing else will do.

Insurance the same.

Pretty lame argument :). Lawyers, really? They do nothing for you, particularly not in this part of the world. And how they would relate to an insurance?

My question was simple, who has ever made use of a 3rd class insurance. And so far nobody did answer this.

We used 3rd class insurance for company pickups for many years.  Did not have any huge claims but worked fine for minor accidents.  The insurance reps turn up the same as for 1st class and deal with the other party and police.  The relatively small premium is worthwhile to avoid the bizarre post accident arguments alone.  

They also turn up for compulsory, so no benefit from paying 5x that premium. 

You are misinformed, 3rd class 3rd party insurance, which is type 3, only pays for damage to the other party. For what you say, own damage caused by yourself to yourself, you need 1st class insurance. That cost about 20k a year. so if you paid that for 25 years you spend around 500k for a car worth nothing.

Mercedes argument again? Don't you have a dashcam?

In conclusion, nobody ever used it. Makes it a complete waste of money.

I didn't say it doesn't cover Benz owners

Yeah, would not make sense to exclude taxis. Thanks.

Ok, so nobody ever used it. 

Still, my question was, if anyone ever had any use or experience of such 3rd class insurance.

My compulsory insurance does not say it only covers medical cost and not Benz ownwers. Where did you get this?

Interesting interpretation though ????

Insurance question, has anyone ever had to make use of a 3rd class insurance policy? That is the one that covers damages to other parties above the compulsory 650B insurance (50kTHB coverage). 3rd class usually cost 3000B +- a year and covers ~10mTHB, that is if you hit a gas station that explodes or similar ????. So, any use for it or just waste of money. I do not talk about 1st class here.

That's why Farangs prefer to donate for sick buffalos and buy expensive phones for girlfriends themselves ????

Should have made it clear and write the Thai price in Thai numbers. Amateurs! ????

I would not go longer, Fiat should collapse soon, or so they say. 

It's a house, and from the house it's an annex, 50sqm, something like that, and I don't move out of the house because of 20 tiles. Lastet for about 8 years I guess, previous owner did not take proper care. Anyways, got new tiles and will be fixed. End of the world has still to come ????
