A good investigator could measure the tire marks left by the motorcycle attempting to stop quickly at 9:30 in the morning traveling at a very high rate of speed in the emergency stop lane. Oh, wait...........no skid marks?

Assuming XMAX 300 The top speed of the Yamaha XMax 300 is quite impressive, reaching 89 mph in a full tuck. https://motostatz.com/yamaha-xmax-300-top-speed-acceleration/ 143 kmh

Using an ACH "push" is still free.

Maybe it's your appearance? Perhaps they've confused you with an uncle.

If you're on a budget, try the BYD Seagull for USD9,700 or the ever popular (amongst the poor) Wuling Mini EV at US$4,500. Happy motoring!

Cool tiktok video with an expensive vehicle, but the Chinese have been doing this for years. Geely has 1-minute battery swaps perfected, and I believe Sinopec is establishing a nationwide fast swap program throughout the country.

Did they stake a claim? According to their results, Antarctica holds more fossil fuel than the entire Middle East. And with a fuel/soil percentage 4x higher than oil shale! They gon' be rich! Amazing Antarctica!

Okay.

If they calculate as per capita, Thailand should be at or near the top. China: .345% (pop 1,450,000,000) Thai: .348% (pop 71,850,000) We win!!!!!!!

Mostly wait and see, as this is the international hub of talking 'bout stuff and never doin' nuthin. Although this is a chance to screw the dirty foreigners, so odds are higher in this case. I manage my investments to stay below the taxable limit. All income is properly reported but below the threshold to pay tax to Uncle Brandon. Will Thailand declare that to be "untaxed" and levy tax? If so, I have no US tax payments to offset so the claim that I can just get it back when I file is incorrect. In the meantime, I'll spend down extra cash I have in Thai accounts, and any funds moved into Thailand will be Wise'd to the wife's bank account. Plans B and C will be prepared. First would be simply staying outside the country, maybe Cambodia for the required number of days. Also looking at better options for retirement. If China offers a retirement visa, we're outa here.

Gotta watch out for roadsides.

I know this sounds crazy, but couldn't you just, you know, pay the ticket? Problem solved.

OP had a SWIFT sent via Wise. That was real live GBP sent across borders and deposited in his Thai bank account, via the SWIFT system, not utilizing the lower-cost Wise alternative. Not a Wise choice.
