Yes 3 beers and your out if you get caught a SECOND time. If you get caught twice then yes deportation.

 

But looking at your reply looks like your one of the drink and drive defenders.

not defending real drink drivers but all dui limits are set way too low ,why ? maybe it's revenue raising !, responsible drivers watch their limits  but its's not hard to go over. real drunks don't care about limits.

People who drink and drive are selfish people. Endangering others for their own comfort. Deportation should be mandatory if it happens again. 

you do know the difference between over the limit and drunk,3 beers will put you over the limit,( will 3 beers make you drunk ?)so with out knowing their readings you want them deported ie so 3 beers and your out.

I guess you should drive in OZ where the speed limit in build up areas (towns,cities) is 60kmh

you do 62 you will get a ticket.

wrong  the speed limit in a built up area is 50 unless sign posted and i have  had a ticket for 1 kmh over .but they  don't put that on the ticket ,all they put is over the limit by under 10 kmh. so you can't contest it in court.

just be careful not to say {finish the hongnarm} did that a wife's place ,came back to find the whole room demolished .  when i said finish the toilet ,builder thought i meant knock it down.yes we had to put a bigger tank in for the extra water,no trenchers though, tank has no bottom so it acts like a sand filter ,just gets pumped every so often.

Just go bankrupt wipe ATO debt.

Heaps people do it in Australia.

IN AUSTRALIA  going bankrupt does not clear a tax dept. further more they can raid your bank accounts & also seize any money owing to you from a third party. the ATO have very broad powers.

    And an Aussie sized barrow box would be nice! 

know how you feel thats why i brought a couple over ,1 wide wheel, 1 skinny wheel & a proper mixer

our local kfc in prasat is far better tasting than our kfc in Hervey bay oz, on the other hand 5 star chicken in Thailand tops them all.

when we built our restaurant all we gave them was a hand drawn plan ,paid a small amount and bobs your uncle all done, blue book ,house number, power & water all good to go. at the start of the build we borrowed power from next door just paid their bill for them much cheaper and less hassle then getting a temporary meter.

say you lose 3 points is there a time period to get them back or do you have to wait and lose the lot to get back to 12 ?any one know, also what happens when some else is driving your car and gets a camera offence i ask because car is in wife name she is here with me in oz but daughter & boyfriend use car.

According to my wife just outside of Buriram city, the local markets where she usually buys food items, cooked food, and vegetables are CLOSED.

same in wife's village ,just outside Prasat markets closed forcing them to shop at big stores at triple the price. [guess i'll have 3 sick buffaloes to pay for now ]  

we are 25 ks from Prasat .use true speeds r great the only time it seams to slow down is before school time & after still a lot faster then the <deleted> we have in oz

The wife drinks johnny red here in oz at a slow pace,may be a bottle per week, but when with  her friends in Thailand that goes to 1 per day which adds up. so i said can't you find some thing cheaper. she picked blend 285 as the closest to red label and unlike samsong you can light a match in the bedroom next morning 555.

the wife lost a fair amount of her farm land when the area was upgraded to cha note. we had built a small house for the daughter on it, about 2 .5 mt off the side boundary, when the surveyors came wife was in oz with me ,so they went on what the neighbor said was the boundary, now the house is 1mt off the boundary. when we saw what had happened we went to lands office but too late the round pegs were all ready in,  . easy to pick side boundary as father a long time ago had planted a tree at each end  ,now the trees belong to neighbor. so yes they can cheat u.

thanks everyone for the info, has helped. the truck in question has been sold (it was a very good price) so it's someone else rs problem now. thanks all.

under no circumstances buy a vehicle without a book. that is all you need to know.

probably y its 150,000 cheaper than the next 1 .will give it a miss thanks NCC1701A,  i thought as much. ps truck has plates and what he calls trading papers.

looking at buying a small truck,owner has papers of when he bought it (owner is Thai) BUT NO BOOK .i know that may mean it is under finance or private loan ( MAFIA ),  also i think it is not taxed as no plates r on it, i know i will have to pay back taxers to use it, what i want to know is there  any way to find out if vehicle is encumbered ?

but afaik you can't get a thai driver licence if you have a tourist visa.                 since when ???
