What happens if you're in an accident in Thailand without medical insurance, and how are ambulance services structured?

Carrie ******

I mean, I have denied ambulances before. I told people not to call, because I didn't feel like it was that necessary and dramatic, and then I went to my hospital of choice. If you're conscious and able to communicate, then you could realistically go wherever you choose to

@Pyae ************

I think you can choose different shipping method. Some are cheaper, but they take longer, or you can pay more money to have it go faster ☺️

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

Carrie ******

@Jay ******

I would worry about that, as others have mentioned I don't think they are a very legal vehicle, so if the insurance knew that it was altered in anyway, such as a saleng is, then you probably wouldn't be covered.

I would speak with your insurance company as this could differ, but part of me doubts that 😂

Can my Lao wife, a US citizen, work in Thailand with a work permit?

Carrie ******

From what I understand, I think that it's actually easier for people from surrounding countries of Thailand - Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos to get work permit as they seem to be allowed to do more than actual western foreigners. I'm not sure with her having us citizenship how that would work, but I wish you the best of luck!

Do I need to keep the receipt for my visa extension when leaving Thailand?

Carrie ******

I have done quite a few 1 month extensions at Samui immigration and have never been given any form of receipt there.
