anyone Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Today I visited Transport Office at Bang Jak and booked my exam at May 25! Is it normal (4 months) or I not understand something?.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJS 7R Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 You can go to any branch in Thailand and they mostly do it the same day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoli Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 The only time I found a delay in Pattaya was when my son (40) was getting his license. At 11:30am each day they brought in busloads of Thai students as it was their time to get licensed. We understood why we were thrown out each day at 11:30 and told to finish tomorrow morning. The students, being on school time, should have precedent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhys Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hmmm... usually it is a whole morning deal.. take class, watch the films.. take the test.. the computer version for westerners.. right.. PASS.. take the driving test.. oppsh...take the color, and reaction and depth perception test... pay.. and you are out of there.. Thus.. what is the delay...

eeeya Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Went through the ordeal about 6 weeks ago at taling Chan, Bangkok. Waited outside building before it opened. The que started to form about 30 minutes before opening. I think there was a maximum of 85 per day. I already had a Thai car license. So don't know if this sped up the process at all. But definitely being a foreigner was a plus. I felt like I was getting pushed through the system by the staff. It took two days. Day 1 was reaction test and computer text. No stupid safety movie because I already had car licence. Day 2 back at 7 am and wait in the que to do the practical. The balancing beam was a bit hairy and the crap scooter with engine problems didn't help either. Pretty easy though. Just make sure you stop at the stop signs and use the indicators when turning.

anyone Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 Visited different brach today (at Rama 2). Same situation - booked at the end of May only. Now I need put my bike to shelf and wait 4 month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewrooney Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 That's weird. Usually if you get there early in the morning and wait in the queue they get you done the same day. What time did you go? Maybe you could try a more remote Land Transport office. I did mine in Nong Jok and they were super helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anyone Posted February 2, 2015 Author Share Posted February 2, 2015 I heard game rules changes this year, now exam takes 3 days (and big delay before, of course). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cornishcarlos Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Yup, my sister in law has her shiny new Ninja and no licence. She told me last night it's a 3 month wait in BKK !! I was as surprised as you guys as I always thought it was a 1 day affair and no booking ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
