NE1 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Safe round our neck of the woods then , people riding motor bikes while texting/tiktokking/facebooking with no helmets , probably no license/tax/insurance. Tuesday there was a Police stop carried out about 5 klicks from us. Cones , flashing lights etc. People were just turning left about 50 metres beforeit , driving round the temple and coming out 100 metres the other side of the Police stop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Dude Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Big deal really, when it is generally considered as optional to have a driving licence anyhow. Even for the average Thai that uses up all their points, it's got as much chance of stopping them from still driving without one as Mr. T has of being a convincing ladyboy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnet1900 Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 90 day ban is going to stop people driving then. Take away the idiots that deserve this the most there are 1000s of Thais that literally cannot earn a bean without driving. Without taking their motor away you'll not keep them off the roads. Laughable lawmaking yet again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernRyland Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Yes but the police aren't able or willing to enforce laws so this new one means nothing. Nice try Thailand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garrya Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Sometimes when we drive around with the missus, we follow cars and I often count the point deductions that should be given to cars driving in front of us. We find that some could accumulate 12 points in a matter of 5 minutes. Not sure how this point-based system will be enforced but there is definitely room for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavisH Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 The 1million+ unlicenced (mostly riders) breathe a collective sigh of relief! Can't lose points if ya got no licence! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
