NO. The title should read: a 69 year old man parks and doesn't put the transmission in "park". Maybe the reporter is not a driver.

From my experience the "Songthaews" in CM are not as good as the ones in Bangkok or Pattaya. The roof of the trucks in CM is too low and passengers cannot see out so do not know where they are or where the have been. Not much use for tourists.

^ I think that was completed way before the pandemic. I used to stand opposite, outside 7-Eleven, waiting for my mate to come driving up the Soi.

OK that's your advice but "the law says"? Maybe you were in the pub. Maybe i'll give up helping people when they ask questions and join the masses with opinions. If it is a worn out thread subject then someone knows the actual answer?

So far most of the same responses as the boring "discussion"

Is it mandatory to carry passport at all times or do we get 24hrs to produce passport or maybe a 2000 baht fine. Not my discussion. Asking for a friend!

As they say.

Some people just want to moan????

We should not discourage the Op from doing what he wants to do. Not all roads are bad. I agree some smaller roads are atrocious especially concrete ones but most major roads are OK. At least where I live. If it is a nice sunny day I cannot see any real reason not to ride from Pattaya to Koh Chang. I am not sure I would ride back the same day. I would probably stay overnight. If the OP wants or needs he can split the journey into 30minute stints. One ride I considered was 380 kms and I would have split that in two as the last half is serpentine and could be tiring. Then again when younger I have dome Udon Thani to Bangkok (550kms +) in one day. But that is just me.

One is either a motorcyclist or or one is not. A motorcyclist would not even ask. I have mates who want to stop at every Amazon for a coffee. Me? I fill the gas tank and ride until it is empty. The OP will not know until he has tried. A PCX will cruise at 80kph+ all day even my Zoomer will do that.

And to stop insects in the mouth. I wear a balaclava as easier to put on the helmet without removing my glasses.

Or if you , like me, live below the water treatment plant. Their pump is bigger than yours.????

Then the answer to his question is probably, no it is not possible to drive a car to Indonesia. Not what documents he needs.

It is a good 250kms. From your post you seem to tick all of the boxes. As Nike say "Just Do It". But remember you have to go back. Keep to the left, keep half an eye on the fuel gauge and the other half on the mirror. Being surprised by a passing pickup is the worst. Have a good trip.

I was feeling flushed. My toilets have two hoses.

Do you mean feeding the cistern or for the bum gun???? I will assume the bum gun. You need to squeeze the trigger gently.

I'm sure that like Canadian railways they have hotspot detectors which monitor passing railcars.
