US passport renewal
Do you remember the month/year? This was for your current passport? Maybe the issue date would help define the month/year? Did you return to pick up your new passport? Or did you purchase a Thai Post EMS slip in the open-air lobby? You can't make an appointment for an adult passport renewal, you'd have to choose another option. -

Can Foreign Tourists in Pattaya Expect Fair Legal Treatment?
I don’t have video, however I lived right at the intersection of Pratamnak and Thappraya and there was nightly check stops there pre-covid. I used to go stand and observe. I saw a disproportionate number of foreigners being administered breath tests, being escorted off somewhere and being returned to the scene a short time later. I cannot say exactly what happened, but I can speculate what did. They also tried it on with my buddy, who lived in the same building as me there one night as we came home from having a few drinks. He had 2 beer the whole night as he was driving. They immediately stuck their “flashlight” in his face that has a passive alcohol sensor that detects alcohol in the ambient air, which could have detected any alcohol inside the vehicle, be it me, him, a spilled bottle of hand sanitizer, etc. he was the ordered from the truck to blow in their roadside breath tester. I know that breath testing device intimately. I was an operator of the same device for 18 years, and was a calibrator of them for 6 years. They use a fuel sensor that “burns” the ethanol emitted from your breath and calculates a reading. There are nowhere near as accurate as a “breathalyzer” (that is the brand name of breath testing device invented by Dr Robert Borkenstein). I was also a qualified technician designated by the Attorney General to operate the breathalyzer and conducted thousands of breath tests. The device they use, the Alco-Sensor IV is to be calibrated every 50 tests (yes, a log is supposed to be written down, and documenting the number of breaths through it) or every two weeks, whichever comes first. Upon re-calibration of this device, I have seen it read higher by at least 18% using a standard gas with ethanol in it at an exact known concentration. I am also trained as a Standardized Field Sobriety instructor as well as a Drug Recognition Expert recognized by the International Association of Chiefs of Police and was also designated person by the Attorney General to conduct such testing. I can tell sobriety by physiological symptoms and can also opine on what category of drug (alcohol is a drug) ranging from CNS Depressants, Inhalants, Dissociative Anesthetice, Cannabis, Stimulants, Hallucinogens and Narcotic Analgesics. I have witnessed the police administering tests with this roadside device and they conduct well over 50 tests per device in two to three hours (you can tell how many tests they do by counting the number of discarded mouthpieces at the checkpoint). When they tried it on with my friend, they used a device that had just been taken from another driver who had blown “over”. It was stuck in his face and he was told to blow. There was no direct observation of him from the time he exited the vehicle to the time he blew. He was told to sit “over there” and wait. How do they know he didn’t drink something in that time span. How do they know he didn’t burp and it was mouth alcohol and not breath alcohol. I guess what I am saying, policing is a science. And my observations have been opposite of how police enforcement is conducted here. I have watched many foreigners be in fear of the police, and how they are asked to “pay up” to make things go away. here is a perfect example caught on video just the other day on how foreigners are treated. He was told he was getting a ticket for expired road tax, on a bike he didn’t own (it was a rental) and unless he reads Thai himself, he would not be able to know the exact date it was expired. When he told them he didn’t have cash, the ticket book went away and he was left to drive to his destination. so yeah, I have stood and observed myself and I know what I have seen. I suggest you go out and watch yourself. here are my credentials added with some redactions. I know what I am talking about -
