Your assumption of why she was fined is incorrect. Easy pass and M Pass use the same lanes and the signs before the gates and at the gates reflect this. So impossible to be fined for what you wrote.

 

But you are maybe getting mixed up with new 'M-Flow' system which you must register for (with your payment details, such as Credit card or Bank deduction) and it is deducted monthly or whenever you use the system. If she went through this lane by mistake (without having registered) then a fine would probably be forthcoming. You should ask her again.

youre  probasbly  correct, but isnt the problem.......now 3  stupid systems, totally uneccessary, Ill pass that info onto her  thanks.

Im all for it pay and go and pay in CASH perfect sod the digikal economy, currently in the UK doing my  anuual "see if Mum is  still alive trip", the amount of  petty rules here is incredible the amount of regulation is stifling, 20mph speed limits over a  lot of Wales, do 25mph in the zones and its 3  points £100 fine 12  points is  banned and thats temporary to give people time to acclinatise to it soon itll be 23mph I can run faster, bikes whizz  past the cars, there's bugger  all in service, everywhere is stupid machines to pay,  everything is stupifyingly expensive, dont whinge about Thailand too much , sure there are some dumb aspects of  Thailand and they drive like selfish 3  year old retards but here trust me  everyone is so sheite scared of dong 33in a  30 that now on  a  long distance trips many people just do 45mph in 60 zones, it took me  over 4  hours to get to my Mothers  house on roads Ive driven down for 40 years and which was done usually  in 2.5 hours. Theres  more white paint and road signs than road.

Sadly Thailand is catching up, Id  take the roadkill over the stifling UK whose policy is zero road deaths where the signs  in Wales  say move over for tractors as theyre the ones going the fastest. Welsh govt spent £30 million changing the 30 signs to 20 no vote on it a  petition was  set uip and got 440k signatures in 5  days to reverse it, I spoke to locals who say they hate it.

The point I guess, dont knock Thai regualtions on some things too much, although their need for ridiculous tree destruction paperwork is obscene.

Been progressively getting worse through the years. Narcissism , especially among world leaders, has lead to the downfall of society and many relationships. Alpha males are ruining the world daily, and some morons actually support these types, thinking they are somehow above others in their ways, when actually they are all inferior little boys needing power to control others around them.

Blimey I really thought I was going mad and was the only person thinking like this, Im sick to death of the narcissistic  world around me, where every  girls dream it to be an airhead "essex" type  bloaty  lipped ugly as  sin ,plucked eyebrowed cretin who thinks "theyre it" combined with a gob<deleted>e  mouth and phone welded to theiur  pathetic  heads.

Personally I stay away from everyone i dont pick and choose, friends are almost  impossible to find anywhere.

Your post above is  just about the same as  my experiences  ion Thailand (17years) even my Wife was assaulted as  young girl in her  village some family member trying to shag her, at a young  age, the Thai underbelly is pretty grim.

|But again I dont restrict it to Thai sam happy to slag off  the what I see as yobby Brits where thug  culture tattoo emblazoned steroided out kids  must spend all day working out because " its all that matters"  in their narcissistic  little  look at me  world. Decent people are the absolute exception these days. I know 2-3 worldwide.

ive got a  great idea, give everyone 100000000000000000 baht to spend free

Another load of  uneccsary crap from the owners of the tollways, Wife has  "easy pass "used it for years, went thru an "Mpass"  lane assuming it was the same.....nope, fine 300 baht, why the hell they need two stupid systems beats me, bit like the new improved updated yet again <deleted> tm 30 online rubbish, that failed after it was introduced for  about 10  months, when it finally worked it was ok.........but oh no way too easy  lets do another one and lets not transfer over the data. they go out of their ways to foook things up in Thailand...no way they will ever  get a  income  tax things to work, they coudln t organise a pee  up in a brewery..done see u in 12  months

Being as everyones hitting their  pants , how about  a  tax  avoidance  topic? all those smart Alecs  telling us if we  dont  know how to avoid any new tax  rules give us  your avoidance tips here. Sticking to just avoidance only and nowt else would help, not 200 pages of morality etc. Tax is a  game nothing more and even more of a  game in Thailand.

That project has been underway for a while now. Hua Hin is building a new gigantic train station. Funds are Chinese I believe. It's pretty obvious the train will go from Vientiane to the Malaysia through Thailand. Great project for the region. Much needed based on my train experiences here !

Nah thats just an upgrade to dual tracks so slow trains dont have to stop to let another pass in certain areas, its  all narrow  guage also if you go and look at it.

I  spent 40 years in construction using just these, the amount of crap they sucked up before failing was incredible also the hoses dont break like many vacuums ive seen in thailand https://thaismegp.com/product/61dbe67d2b3aa382ba09f3a2

It's gonna be great. The train that China build in Laos is pretty amazing. Thailand could greatly benefit.

What would be great right now is if China was  serious  would be to tell Taiwan, were  sorry we  will stop all activity concerning your  nation and will also stop demanding the S China sea.....this would  have incredible repurcussions round the world and bring massive stability and give them some decent credibility, way more than the constant crap they spew out.

That quote comes from the Thai Revenue Department  DTA document. Their use of the word "residents" (note, plural, not resident) in the first sentence is descriptive and not intended to be a term or proper name, it is meant to differentiate between people who remain here for long periods and those who visit as tourists. The documents second use of the words "Thai resident" should read, Thai tax resident (or similar). But the document does go on to qualify and define, the term Thai Tax Resident and the criteria needed to become tax resident, eg, more than 180 days so all the information is there. In your defense, the term Resident and Tax Resident should both have been capitalised but weren't. 

 

The DTA applies to persons who are residents of the Contracting States. In order to be classified as a Thai resident and be entitled to treaty benefits, a person must be one of the following:

- An individual who stays in Thailand for a period or periods exceeding in the aggregate 180 days in a tax year;

- A juristic person who is incorporated under the Civil and Commercial Code of Thailand.

 

 

Thanks......confusing as ever  Ill do what Ive alwsys done with tax  depts worldwide......tell them as  little  as  possible.
