The limit is 0.50 milligrams % of alcohol but His reading was 0.114 milligrams % of alcohol. It's the milligrams and the % that's confusing me. To me 0.5 % is greater than 0.114% Its like writing it with 3 decimal places. ie 0.5 would become 0.500 Or is this where the milligrams (weight) factor comes in? I guess whoever wrote the story didn't attend math class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My knowledge of math is the 0.114 is LESS than 0,50. But I am not a Thai police nor an useless reporter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am not a Thai police nor an useless reporter. As Skipalongcassidy politely pointed out, we are suppose to be familiar with DUI rules. Then we would have known that the limit was suppose to read 0.05. An error by the reporter in the OP. Nothing wrong with your math. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It´s sad when stuff like that happens to people. Just remember one thing in your posts that bears you deeply rooted bitterness. It´s foreigners that has been behaving bad, breaking the laws and so on that made the crackdowns you are referring to. Not the other way around. No, it's xenophobia that's fuelled the recent crackdowns. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It´s people like you that have xenophobia, as you believe that all people in a country is out for you, what you bad or coming for you. In reality, you sound like you are almost afraid of your own shadow. You probably also hear them talking behind your back, and children are pointing at you when you walk by, right?

That doesn't really work out since in this case and many others the culprit is not of an English speaking country. Perhaps a moderator could interact with some of the publishers and would care to explain why they target negative news at a certain demographic? Unfortunately for them I watch Thai news and I know what happens, and to say a guy getting picked up on DUI is petty is an understatement. I mean it would be a good idea to explain yourselves, because you guys are already a shadow of what ThaiVisa was and lets be real, forums are already somewhat of a remnant. We don't have to click on your site. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, they drive in a different way, with a different mindset. That´s what you have to learn and adjust to, as you are in their country. You can't come here and expect everyone to drive like in the US, UK or like you want. Edited April 10 by Gottfrid 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
