And PR is worth exactly what ?

Minus 204,000 baht I think ???? 

- No 90 day reporting.

- No visa worries ever again.

- Not subject to future rule changes.

- Complete peace of mind.

- Makes life a whole lot easier. 
- Worth every baht, IMO.

Good to see he was wearing a mask, otherwise he could be in serious trouble. 

It often doesn’t matter how carefully you drive if thousands are driving around p***ed.

How about putting the RTP on alert for the other 298 days of the year!  Wakey wakey

Are there only 305 days in the year where you live? 

I don’t mind helping with the interviews and training.

The drivers of two 22 wheel trucks gave conflicting reports about their role in the accident. They had minor injuries.

One said he fell asleep, the other said his brakes failed.

That's an oxymoron if i ever seen one...

Just moron if you ask me. 

By the time the restrictions are lifted, everyone taking a long haul holiday this year will have done so, and to

countries that have already lifted them. It could be a year before those people in employment can take leave for another trip. Thailand is missing out massively. But I’m sure they think people are queuing up at airports as they dither ready to come here. They’re not.

Beware of those with a valve as you may not be protecting others.

may serve to blacken the reputation of the police force.

How do you blacken something that’s already black?

Thanks for your replies. Very helpful. In the end, I contacted my insurance company (Roojai) as I remember them having a Roadside Assistance service. They sent someone out within 30 minutes to jump start the car. The service was free and you can call them out twice a year. I then drove to Cockpit to have the old battery checked and it was at the end of its life. Got a new GS battery installed for 1,942 baht. Result.
 

Thanks again everyone.  

You can’t really blame Asia in general, as the Philippines is index linked.

Complete two forms, one in blue and one in black and wait until you get there before attaching the photograph. It’ll only take an extra couple of minutes and you can’t go wrong. 

Should be a minimum of 30 years for murder. We deserve protection from these maniacs.
