ttl Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 The last few days have clearly indicated the lack of knowledge and ability of drivers in this country (amongst other contributing factors that could fill another page.) As an example. I should like to hear comment on a progressive licence from LEARNER to FULL as a way to build the skill base of our drivers for all classifications The New Zealand Transport Agency has a very comprehensive website from which the requirements are set down, together helpful advice and resources to assist all applicants.Should you wish to visit the website you will find a wealth of situations that could well be adopted )or amended to suit Thailand) My main objective is to get the discussion on the concept with the hope that the :Local Authority will be obliged to stop, read and listen to comment I am quite happy to provide data on the next step to Full Licence, which will indicate the way forward to several more options for Heavy Transport,Passenger Vehicles,Taxis etc the list may surprise you: "Your wishes are my command" Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave_boo Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Haven't been here long have you? You not Thai; no understand. They'll get around to it...eventually. Things have changed a lot in the last 15 years mostly for the better. But you, as a foreigner, coming in and trying to dictate how they run things will go over as well as trying to tell a petulant teen something.

Pib Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 In a galaxy far, far away named Thailand they had a different attitude about driving. Rules, enforcement, having insurance, etc.,--no fun. Much more fun to just ignore rules....drive anyway you desire....enjoy...say you sorry and give wai when caught driving dangerously....see you soon in the hospital intensive care unit (or morgue).

KhunBENQ Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Even the slightest improvements like mandatory driving lessons on the road with an instructor and a practical driving test on the road with an officer would explode the effort/cost by magnitudes. Currently the whole thing is done for xxx Baht (I don't have the exact number at hand, 505?). 505 Baht, (~ 13 Euro, 16 US Dollar, 22 NZ Dollar). A driving license in Germany incl. driving lessons would cost more like a 1000+ Euro (don't nail me on exact numbers). Now think what would happen and how long it would take to migrate.
