our daughter turned 19 and wanted her licence, had never driven a car or rode a bike, she got it in 4 days, 3 days driving around an enclosed course for a couple of hours, one morning driving on an actual road for a short time, was shown a video of the driving regulations on one morning then was immediately sat in front of a computer with a choice of answers and was handed her licence. She would be considered a new learner driver in Australia at best, no written exam at all, the course is a total joke, I refuse to let her drive our car as she has no idea what she is doing and her on road experience would be lucky to be 1 hour, this is why so many thais are killed on the roads.
GOOD write up, am sure the same applies in the Uk.....states.. in fact anywhere else in the world....

If they were genuine tourists then, as a minimum, they would have before their departure from their home country purchased a travel insurance for the duration of their stay. Not very expensive.
depends ....my friend who has being coming here for many yrs (he now 70) was quoted 375 english pounds for travel insurance....and you say NOT expensive !!???

Renting out big motorcycles to tourists should be limited. The risk is too high because Thailand drives in the opposite side of the road than many other countris.
there are 75 countries that drive on the left......so your statement is not correct really

Big bike license...training...race track...will not change the Thai mind set...
"I buy a big bike to go fast...if I want to go the speed limit...I will buy a smaller bike"...
I drive the speed limits in my car...big bikes pass me like I am sitting still...how you going to change that? Start issuing big tickets for speeders! ????
are they not suppose to issue tickets any way....with ALL the cctv cameras around?? and if they did issue how/when the fines be paid????

Note that having the required 10,000/20,000 baht as laid out in the regulations will not help if the immigration official wants to deny entry. That only prevents denied entry under the Immigration Act Section 12 (9). The officials are now denying entry under the vague Section 12 (2) which (on its face) seems to imply lack of funds, but is being twisted to mean not a genuine tourist.
just how do people coming here for the first time KNOW of these sections/sub sections.....their travel agency from the country from which they came probably do NOT know anything about the sections.....therefore can not advise !!!
