Didn't they buy the MG name from the Germans who didn't want it..? My thought is the British setup is just a smokescreen to give the impression folk are buying a British MG...

So I was right, it is a Chinese company who bought the MG brand name to use that name, history and Union Jack flag to sell Chinese stuff. I have read all their advertising blog, you know, "Since 1924" stuff... Together with a 100% Chinese Maxus truck covered in British bling. ????

Dealers charge a deposit for the red plates as they belong to the garage, think it cost me 3000bht which is returned when you collect the blue book and white plates...

As you seem to know everything about the British MG brand, can you tell me what % of MG is owned by a British company..?

Not sure if it has changed, but you can use red plates for 30 days, after that it is an offence. You can go to LTO for a covering letter if your plates have not turned up. I assume no plates is an offence in its self, but like most things in LOS, the BiB don't do much..

There's one floating around near me, Mrs.T thought it amusing....????....But it is the future...

That has nothing to do with a product, MG, being 100% Chinese...????

Yep, here is the UK punishment for using a mobile phone when driving... https://www.gov.uk/using-mobile-phones-when-driving-the-law#:~:text=Penalties,proper control of the vehicle.

Hey, the police take care of underage kids on motorcyles to get into their school gates...???? Special Elite Force......????

Of course, but they did have a bag ban....Same as a beer ban, my point is, LOS is no different to farangland in its wrapping department...????

LOS have NEVER had suitable fines, in fact last year they reduced some.....???? You may think I am a dinosaur, but at least l have an idea regarding LOS folk thought.????

Go in any shop in the west and what do you see, Plastic. Plastic wrappers advertising the probably small item inside. Half a century ago, buy a shirt, it's in a box, all nicely wrapped again in tissue or plastic. Go in a farang supermarket now, I reckon 99% of it is in plastic, from a sealed bag to cellophane wrap.. The hygiene thingy. So no, LOS is no worse than farangland, in fact didn't LOS ban plastic carrier bags...????

I think you are thinking like a farang.....????

And the west isn't.....?....????

And your going inside will work.....????

Doubt it, sensible, collected fines that make folk...????.....will do more than a break with free grub...

Most use phones on those things here in LOS....????

What a strange assumption, go to the back of the class........????.............????

Twice for me....????

Weeeell, I think most of the stuff they do is daft anyhoooo, it's just the way it is, from driving tests, to vehicle tests, to fines and lets not forget lack of police presence to deter daft road users.... ????

Pickett..

Jockey..

I did that with mine, the shock absorption stuff was made of high density polystyrene, trimmed it with a hobby knife then glued the lining back...????

What about human life....? PS. Go read the thread title again, the guy is still alive............????

Speed bumps will slow traffic near crossings, painted lines will do nothing...
