Car tax road tax check by police, do they check more from April month each year ?

[l4ml4m]

hello,

it seems that from the month of April the cops check road tax more often every year ?

Because from April everybody should have the new road tax, right ? So they just need to see the year written big on the sticker to know that someone car tax has expired ? (they do not need to check the month to know if expired or not).

This is what someone told me, can you confirm ?

And also, as they just have started road checks everywhere, it's an easy way for them to make a lot of money quickly ?

Nothing to do with April apart from being songran festival month the year is checked along with the month as well as year.

This year they are looking for drink drivers alledgely.

The expiry day and month is written on the sticker   immediately to the left of the large

year number.

ok, so it seems difficult for you to understand that the BIG year can clearly be seen from far, but the small months cannot ?

And then its very very difficult to understand that they will catch more people because it's easier to check from far away that the year is wrong ?

wow, another champion...

Well I refrain from comment about what you think.

I don't find anything difficult to understand thankyou

You maybe cannot spot what month but a Thai person can.

somewhere maybe, not everywhere

 

Really no need for brazen answers to simply being told facts.

Learn to read Thai and you can even read the month.

Its 2564 for another 8 months, the sticker will say 2564 if it expired in Jan, or expires next December. Its not until next year that police can tell a 2564 sticker has expired. unless they look closer at the month

So how does that work if one gets your road tax in December. ????

Even at 73, I can remember which month my car tax is due.

Somchai and his uniformed brethren need money for the local firewater for the upcoming festivities. Same behaviour before Gregorian New Year. I also guess, that the uniformed big wig in brown, sitting in his air-conditioned office at the police station or being driven around in his Benz, instructs his underlings to bring home the bacon in time. 

Keep your paperwork in order, stick to the traffic rules (speed, drive on the left lane but not on the hard shoulder of the road etc.) and you're fine!

The sticker colour changes every year as well,  but not sure when

The third day of the waxing moon, in months ending with a Y, when Scorpio is in Aries, are peak times.

Consult an Astrologer for precise dates and times

Neither of our two cars or motorbike have road tax that expire in April so your “someone” is wrong.

As far as police road checks are concerned they can have as many as possible as long as it catches the offenders.

My only cricism is that after issuing the infringement notice they allow the offenders to drive away, rather than impounding the vehicle as happens in a couple of countries I know.
