  1. Not really https://phuket-motorbike-rental.com/the-penalties-for-traffic-offenses-in-thailand/#:~:text=Thailand Traffic fines in 2022 (updated)&text=After paying the fine%2C you,influence of alcohol or drugs. "Additionally, scooter rental agencies can be fined for renting scooters to people without a valid driver’s license". Random police controls in Phuket are frequent, especially around the Patong, Karon, and Kata checkpoints. Yet are the rental bike companies held to account, the answer to that is rarely.
  2. Thats not entirely correct when driving without an IDP. "Additionally, scooter rental agencies can be fined for renting scooters to people without a valid driver’s license". Random police controls in Phuket are frequent, especially around the Patong, Karon, and Kata checkpoints. Thailand Traffic fines in 2022 (updated) After paying the fine, you will have a 24-hour grace period, which means that you will not get a second ticket for driving without an IDP within the next 24 hours. Of course, this grace period does not apply to those caught driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.Nov 6, 2565 BE https://phuket-motorbike-rental.com › ...

  3. So I can continue to break the law after paying a ticket and can wave it in the air saying "I have a get off fee ticket"....Please, are you for real.....
  4. So your offended that Trumps actions are causing others issues. Why? I mean the first video is the one I posted about, but the 2nd one also goes to show his hatred for others and why he should be barred from ever holding office again. Far from off-topic.
  5. This is exactly why Trump should not be allowed to run again for office and should be barred. The last sentence is in my view the death knell for Trump as far as his inciting the insurrection. Judge Finds Jan. 6 Defendant ‘Followed Then-President Trump’s Instructions’ to Breach the U.S. Capitol (msn.com) Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s ruling found that MacAndrew “followed then-President Trump’s instructions, which were in line with her stated desires.” According to the ruling, MacAndrew was found guilty of “(1) Entering and Remaining in a Restricted Building, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1752(a)(1); (2) Disorderly and Disruptive Conduct in a Restricted Building, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1752(a)(2); (3) Violent Entry and Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building, in violation of 40 U.S.C. § 5104(e)(2)(D); and (4) Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in a Capitol Building, in violation of 40 U.S.C. § 5104(e)(2)(G).” While the guilty verdict against MacAndrew is not surprising, Kollar-Kotelly’s explicit tying of then President Donald Trump to her actions that day is notable.
  6. Trumps followers in the GOP are finding themselves in a world of hurt as well for their roles in the insurrection/coup attempt. Here is Ron Johnson who claims he had no role except as a courier between Trump and Pence as far as the fake electorate issues go..... 'Dumb': GOP's Ron Johnson humiliated over nonsensical coup claim (msn.com)
  7. Having lived in Phuket, the Chalong and Rawai Areas, most of the people I observed riding motor bikes were tourists and a few long term expats, very few locals on the coastal road.
  8. Why, are there only 2 parties and 2 people to choose from during an election?
  9. As an independent I find you labeling me a democrat hilarious. Where did my post say the Dems were doing well. I stated that: "Between the Democrats and republicans the US is going to hell in a hand basket right now. looks like an internal civil war is occurring within both parties".
  10. So does that work for a tourist with a proper license and IDP from his/her country, I mean you can not deduct points......10 years ago in Phuket I was stopped because my partner on the back did not have a helmet, they made me park the bike, walk to the ATM, get cash, pay them 500 baht for having a passenger with no helmet. The helmet had been stolen off of the bike at the gym we were at just an hour before, and we were on our way to the local office in Chalong to make a report.....no slack. I was told I should have gone and bought a new helmet before riding to make the report.....
  11. Just walk into a few places you like, generally they have a rental office. You can check one that I am aware of near Lumpini Park. Lumpini Park View
  12. My condolences ???? to her family. A freak accident but was the driver impaired and could it have been prevented.
  13. So no more booking appointments months out. That will be a godsend for many.
  14. I realize they will be deducted....the point I made was how they will make money and that will be by adding points after paying a fee to some entrepreneur ...
  15. You must work for TAT, as your hilarious. My predictions were not far off but TATs new goals are hilarious.
  16. You mean there's money to be made on points being added to your license.....I mean possibly you'll need to pay for getting the suspension removed from your license if yours get suspended because of points, but then if it's business as usual how are the non licensed ones going to have points added or do they even care.
  17. In the US you can buy a car as long as your over 18 and then you may or may not need a guarantor if you can not show the income if leasing or buying on credit. No license needed. Yet if you want insurance on the far then that's a different story. Used cars get bought and never registered in the US from private owners all of the time, cash is king.
  18. Did you loo at the title of the OP, they are discussing companies that look legal but are only listed as being owned by a Thai but are actually run by others who are not Thai.....illegal to use a Thai to buy or make a business if they are not actually involved ie....Nominee.
  19. As far as regarding the use of agents here is a pop up on the LTR website
  20. Yes the same 1st test I took to renew my 5 year licenses. All done at Chatuchack for the past 2 renewals of my 2 year initial. Prior to testing this time you needed to complete the online DLT e-learning module where after finishing the module successfully you recieved a QR code you needed to show at the DLT.
  21. If elected he will need a motorized Zimmer to haul his assets around......
  22. Yet in Bangkok you still complete all 4 physical ability tests. Identify the light color 3 times. Brake test Aligning the 2 sticks in the box Peripheral vision test.
  23. You mean allure.....as in lured to a scam
