SGDude Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I don't have any driving license. Never driven a car or a motorcycle. I am thinking of learning to ride a scooter and maybe buy a 2nd hand one for my transportation needs. Any idea where I could learn to drive and get a license in BKK?

sinewave Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 if you can ride a bike, you can ride an automatic scooter. the honda safety driving institute on ramkhamhaeng rode has programs every now and then, but you would really be wasting your time because it is so simple. I could let you take my honda click out for a ride, i'd be even happier if you buy it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGDude Posted May 16, 2009 Author Share Posted May 16, 2009 My concern is not my ability to ride a scooter but the legal ramifications if I were to be caught riding one without a license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaicbr Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 sgdude the Thai bike test is real easy and only cost 110baht for the licence. go to your local dmv/transport office. the computer part of the test is in English. but you may need to take a Thai friend to translate the riding part of the test.

If you need help, PM me, I can teach you how to ride and how to get your license, as well as tell you what to expect from the cops, etc. We'll even use Sinewaves click so if you wreck it, we won't care, haha!

BEENTHEREDONETHAT Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Do like the Thais do, just get on and ride. Only requirement is a helmet, although a old margarine tub would probably do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinewave Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 My concern is not my ability to ride a scooter but the legal ramifications if I were to be caught riding one without a license. the test is done in a small track at the licences office and you can rent a bike there for the test, although the bike is going to be really bent out of shape. ramifications? >> 100-200 baht under the table, or just run like i do.
