Can a foreigner drive a Saleng in Thailand with a motorcycle license?

Driving a Saleng.

Can anyone advise me whether a foreigner obtaining a regular Thai motorcycle driving licence qualifies the individual to drive a saleng?

Reason I ask is that I know in Thailand it’s the vehicle, rather than the driver, which is insured.

Consequently, I know I can drive a borrowed car with a Thai driving licence (or IDP for the first three months) and I can drive a borrowed motorcycle with a Thai motorcycle licence.

I’m told a foreigner cannot drive a Songthaew (Baht-Bus) and am wondering if the same applies to a saleng (as well as a tuk-tuk).

I have access to cars, motorcycles and a saleng owned by the Thai extended family I am staying with.

Any experienced advice would be gratefully received.
