Don Mega Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Just had a call from a work colleague to tell me heading into Pattaya from Laem Chabang just past the 36 they have the road blocked and are checking all drivers paperwork. Also asking farangs for passports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asiantravel Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 " Also asking farangs for passports." it will be interesting to hear how many farangs who were not carrying their passports in the car have been hauled off to the police station(bearing in mind the Thai drivers license shows the passport number anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cynical Sailor Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 A checkpoint was also set up at the Dolphin roundabout on 2nd Rd this afternoon. I moved to the outside lane so wasn't pulled over. [emoji106] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguston Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 If you were Thai you would be asked to show your ID card. Non-Thais are no different. You should carry your ID with you at all times. Carrying your passport or alternative ID is not a hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But wouldn't it be better, if they did some real Highway police work, instead of money collection. days. what are they caring about, road safety or easy money ? That's a hard one to answer.
