I have an international driving licence issued by the UK Post Office.You produce your licence and 2 photographs and it is valid for one year, though you are only allowed for 90 days from entry.
If you drove on IDL you are only allowed to drive for 90 days after arrival. A friend if mine had a minor accident and the policy specified Thai driving licence.
Not being white and having black British and black American friends we find it funny that some "ladies" will shag anything for money but discriminate against non white tourists when a lot of the white tourists are the absolute dregs of their societies.
