My friend, I understood your point, but Pattaya is different. They already have text printed on paper in 3 languages, fine is 1000 baht (actually it’s 400, but there 1000) if you stay here long time, it’s ok, but new people all pay. Cannot explain anything to them.
I make drivers license for living in Thailand, have agency. I know a little bit what I’m talking about.
Sure you can sit there for 2 hours trying to explain, after they write you a ticket and you go Soi 9 police and sit there another hour and after you come back, your motorbike is towed to police parking lot. After you go pay for towing and parking… this is how it’s done over here and nobody care if you still have 3 months from entry stamp
sure, same any other international license, but my comment was- try to explain this to traffic police. Especially in Pattaya. They will laogh at your documents..
